Answers
To expunge or seal a criminal history record, a defendant must not, prior to the date when he or she files an application for a certificate of eligibility, have been found guilty of a criminal offense or similar ordinance violation or have been adjudicated delinquent for committing a misdemeanor or felony specified in section 943.051(3)(b). Under Florida law, a criminal history record that pertains to a DUI violation may not be expunged, if the defendant pled guilty or no contest to or was found guilty of the offense. The court may only expunge a criminal history record relating to one incident of alleged criminal activity or arrest. It may expunge a criminal history record pertaining to more than one arrest if the other arrests directly relate to the first arrest.
