Re: How do you know if your records are TRULY expunged?
Thank you for your posting and your inquiry.
If, by your question, you mean was your case expunged, you should check with the court, to see what was entered or ordered after the expungement motion as granted.
I think, however, that you meant to ask whether or not an expunged case shows up anywhere -- for that, you'd have to get a criminal background check done, and look at what comes up in a search, which is almost the same way that most employers would find out about it, should they bother to check.
I hope that this information helps you, but if you have further questions, want more information, or feel that you need legal representation, please feel free to email me directly at [email protected]. It's my pleasure to assist in any way that I can.
