Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
Had a DUI arrest in 1988 with assault on law enforcement officer. Adjudication was withheld I believe (Florida). How do I go about having record sealed or expunged?

The DUI can not be removed from your record. If you received a withhold on the second charge you can have it sealed and later expunged. You can either contact a lawyer (most are not very expensive for this) or you can download the application from the FDLE website.

Actually once you have been convicted of ANY charge, such as the DUI, then you are forbidden from getting any charge sealed or expunged. In other words, you can't get the assault charge sealed or expunged due to the DUI conviction.
