Criminal Record Sealing and Expungement - Generally.

If ever arrested, you may now realize that the criminal arrest record (police and court) arising from your arrest can cause you problems in employment,
housing, and other situations when a Florida criminal background check is done.
Even if you received a withhold of adjudication and were not convicted,
the criminal record may still be causing you problems. If you qualify,
sealing or expunging your criminal arrest (police and court) records is
a low cost way of improving your life. Once the sealing or expungement
of your Florida criminal record is granted by the court, the withhold
of adjudication or dismissal of your felony, misdemeanor, or other
criminal charge will no longer be available as a public record as it
will be sealed or expunged. Also, if you seal or expunge the Florida
criminal record, you gain the LEGAL right to deny or fail to acknowledge anything to do with the arrest and the legal proceedings from the case itself.

Do you qualify for record sealing or expungement in Florida? These are the basic requirements:

• Have you have never had a record sealed or expunged before?;
• Have
  you never have been convicted (adjudicated guilty) of a misdemeanor,
  criminal ordinance violation (this also includes traffic criminal cases
  such as DUI, reckless driving, or driving while license suspended) or a
  felony?;
• Are you currently under court supervision (probation, community control, or any other court mandated program)?

If you answered NO to the questions above, you likely will qualify to have your record sealed or expunged. If you took a plea and received a withhold of adjudications SOME cases can't be sealed but most can. If you were arrested and the charges were dismissed, dropped, never filed, or you were found not guilty, then you likely will qualify for relief.
