Whether your charges were dropped or you were convicted, the record of an arrest is public record in Florida. That means anyone is allowed to request or look up the information regarding your case (arrest report, court records, booking photos, etc.). As long as you were not convicted (adjudicated guilty) for the charge(s) that you want to remove, you may be able to seal or expunge your record.
The basic requirements that you need to meet are:
1. You are not under court supervision (probation, house arrest, etc.);
2. You were not convicted (adjudicated guilty) of the offense you wish to remove and you have NEVER been convicted of any criminal offense anywhere in the U.S.;
3. You have never had a criminal record sealed or expunged in any other state previously;
4. You did not take a plea to any of the charges listed on the exceptions list. If the charges were dropped, it doesn't matter if they are on this list. Click here for the exceptions list.
