A probation before judgment was entered on the charge, but the conduct on which the charge was based is no longer
a crime.
A probation before judgment was entered on the charge, and the conduct on which the charge was based still is a
crime. The charge did not allege a violation of Code, Transportation Article, §21-902; Code, Criminal Law Article, §§2-503, 2-504, 2-505, or 2-506; Code, Criminal Law Article, §3-211; or former Code, Article 27, §388A or §388B. Either (a) at least three years have passed since that disposition, or (b) I have been discharged from probation, whichever is later. Except for any conviction of a charge where the conduct on which the charge was based is no longer a crime, I was not convicted of any crime during the three-year period immediately following entry of the probation before judgment.
I am not now a defendant in any pending criminal action.
A Nolle Prosequi was entered. Either three years have passed since that disposition, or a General Waiver and Release is attached. I am not now a defendant in any pending criminal action.
The proceeding was stetted. Three years have passed since that disposition. I am not now a defendant in any pending criminal action.
I was convicted of a crime specified in Code, Criminal Procedure Article, §10-105 (a)(9). Three years have passed
since the later of the conviction or satisfactory completion of the sentence, including probation. I am not now a defendant in any pending criminal action.
I was found not criminally responsible for a crime specified in Code, Criminal Procedure Article, §10-105 (a)(9) or (a)(10). Three years have passed since the finding of not criminally responsible. I am not now a defendant in any pending criminal action.
The case was transferred to the juvenile court pursuant to Code, Criminal Procedure Article, §§4-202 or 4-202.2.
(Note: This Petition shall be filed in the court that issued the order of transfer. The expungement is only of the records in the criminal case, not the records in the juvenile court. See Code, Criminal Procedure Article, §10-106.)
The case was compromised or dismissed pursuant to Code, Criminal Law Article, §3-207, former Code, Article 27, §12A-5, or former Code, Article 10, §37. Three years have passed since that disposition.
I was convicted of one criminal act, which is not a crime of violence as defined in Code, Criminal Law Article,
§14-101(a), and on or about |
, I was granted a full and unconditional pardon by the Governor, with |
|
Date |
respect to that conviction. Not more then ten years have passed since the Governor signed the pardon. I am not now a defendant in any pending criminal action.
WHEREFORE, I request the Court to enter an Order for Expungement of all police and court records pertaining to the above arrest, detention, confinement, and charges.
I solemnly affirm under the penalties of perjury that the contents of this Petition are true to the best of my knowledge, information and belief, and that the charge to which this Petition relates was not made for any nonincarcerable violation of the Vehicle Laws of the State of Maryland, or any traffic law, ordinance, or regulation, nor is it part of a unit the expungement of which is precluded under Code, Criminal Procedure Article, §10-107.
