Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

Since you used the word "served" I will assume that you have a conviction. If so, then it cannot be expunged and you do not qualify for a non-disclosure which does somewhat the same thing.

If you successfully completed a deferred adjudication, then you might qualify for a non-disclosure. Although the records will not be destroyed, they will not be available to everyone. They will still exist for some purposes, however. See an attorney who handles these to see if you are eligible.

Based on what you have written, it appears that you were convicted of the assault charge and sentenced to jail for 10 days. If you received a conviction, you may not be eligible for an expunction or non-disclosure. On the other hand, if you were given deferred adjudication, there is a possibility that you may qualify for a non-disclosure. This would basically seal up your criminal record for this charge so that only the 29 agencies listed in the Code could see it. You probably want to consider consulting with a local law firm to fully discuss these options.
