The Defense Perspective

Have you heard of private mining companies who harvest the arrest info so that even if you get the arrest off your record, some employers can still find out...


Gravatar Anon: Yes I have. What happens is private companies maintain private data bases by purchasing criminal history information from the states. If a company fails to regularly update their data, an expunged arrest record can easily surface in their database. Believe it or not, there are laws that require these private companies to regularly update their information or face fines and prosecution. I wonder how forcefully these laws are enforced, however. Nonetheless, I firmly believe an expunged arrest record is better than a non-expunged record. Thanks for your comment.


Gravatar Can you tell me where I can find a form or example of a request for expungement example to file with a county court in Texas? Thanks


Gravatar kc: Best to contact a Texas attorney about an expunction. There are a few traps you want to avoid. An experienced lawyer can get this work done properly for you. Thanks for stopping by.
