Re: criminal expungement/vacation

ID Theft 1st Degree is a class B felony and cannot be vacated until 10 years after the entry of a Certificate of Discharge (and no new convictions after discharge).

A Certificate of Discharge will be granted only after all conditions have been satisfied, including legal financial obligations, i.e. restitution and court costs.
