Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia
how do you quash something on your record that you did not go to court for?
2 Answers from Attorneys
There's no such thing as "quashing something on your record."
Is the question can you quash an arrest? If the arrest appears on your record, you were arrested. That will not be dismissed, sealed or expunged, unless the case is dismissed. The fact that you have not gone to court yet, does not change the fact that you were arrested. You may be hoping that you never go to court, but your case is probably just working its way through the system. While you are not contacting your attorney or any attorney, valuable evidence on your case is probably being lost. when you appear in court, you will probably carp about how long everything took, with no thought to what you are actually going to do on the case. In he meantime, potential employers are viewing the arrest. If you mishandle the case, future potential employers will see your conviction, which will also not be sealed, expunged or quashed.
