What Is Expungement in Michigan?
Expungement, also known as “setting aside a conviction,” allows eligible individuals to remove certain convictions from their criminal record. In Michigan, recent changes to expungement laws have made the process more accessible. Here are the key eligibility criteria:
- Number of Convictions: Individuals with up to three felonies and unlimited misdemeanors may qualify.
- Waiting Period: Depending on the offense, you must wait three to seven years after completing your sentence.
- Eligible Offenses: Most misdemeanors and non-violent felonies can be expunged. Certain offenses, such as felonies punishable by life imprisonment and certain traffic offenses, are not eligible.
Expungement can significantly improve your ability to secure employment, housing, and other opportunities.
