Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

# of Expungements?

I had 2 Misd. class ''C'' (Municipal court) and 1 Misd. class ''A'' (County court) cases filed against me in 2006-07. The prosecutor in the municipal court decided to dismiss their both cases on condition: one was to be refilled in the same court because the place of incident was not correct; and second case, was sent to the county court for a higher charge; from class C to A. So now, there was one case active in municipal court and 2 cases were active in county court. Then, I had a trial in the municipal court which I won. So now, all the cases were dismissed/closed at the municipal court, but I still had 2 active cases in the county court. Now, the case which was dismissed from municipal court and accepted in county court was dismissed without any trial or sentencing, but the second case was tried and I won again. I was arrested 2 times, only for county court cases. I never had any probation, community service or parole. To conclude, I had 3 original cases out of which 2 were initially dismissed to be refilled; and because of that, it became 5 different court cases. Now, I wanted to know how many exact # of expugements I need. How long will it take to get my records expunged? I've asked lawyers, but their answers isn't same.
