Glossary of Legal Terms
Florida Statutes provide that if a person’s criminal record contains
certain
dangerous crimes,
such crimes,
even if you
received a withhold of adjudication,
cannot be expunged, nor can the criminal record be sealed. However,
if you were charged or arrested for any of those offenses and you
were found not guilty at trial or those charges were later
abandoned, dismissed or dropped you remain eligible to have your
criminal record history
sealed
or
expunged.
