What Is an Expungement?
An expungement, also known as a “set aside,” removes eligible convictions from your public record. Once granted, the conviction is no longer visible to most employers, landlords, or background checks.
In Michigan, recent laws have expanded eligibility, including the Clean Slate Act, which allows automatic expungement of certain offenses and broader access to petition-based expungements.
Types of Convictions That May Qualify
- Misdemeanors (most types)
- Certain non-violent felonies
- Marijuana offenses before legalization
- Some traffic violations (excluding DUIs and serious offenses)
Automatic expungement may apply to specific convictions, but many still require a petition and court approval.
