Legal Question in Criminal Law in Missouri

Re: Felony Espungement

Yes, you should be eligible for an expungement now. Contact an experienced criminal defense attorney in the area of the Missouri conviction. He or she will probably be able to handle it for you without your having to come back. If your conviction was in the Kansas City area, call me at 913-648-7070 or email me at [email protected]. Good luck.

Re: Felony Espungement

I'm not aware of a Missouri statute that would allow you to expunge a felony conviction from your record unless you could show that it was a false arrest and then other criteria would have to be meet. See Missouri Revised Statutes 610.122

Missouri courts have limited authority to equitably expunge criminal records unless there was illegal prosecution, acquittal, or extraordinary circumstances. (Jones v. St. Louis County Pol. Dept, 133 S.W.3d 524 (2004))

You might want to refer to The Criminal Law handbook by Nolo press for easy to understand information on Criminal Law & Criminal Proceedure in lay person terms. You can get a copy of the book here:
