The New Hampshire Petition to Expunge is a legal process that allows people to have their criminal records expunged or sealed. The process is available to individuals who have been arrested and/or convicted of a crime in New Hampshire. There are two types of expungement petitions available in New Hampshire: a Petition to Expunge Arrest Records and a Petition to Expunge Conviction Records. The Petition to Expunge Arrest Records is available to individuals who have been arrested for a crime but were never convicted; while the Petition to Expunge Conviction Records is available to individuals who have been convicted of a crime. In both cases, the petitioner must provide the court with evidence, such as a criminal background check, that they are eligible for expungement. If the court grants the petitioner's request, the criminal record in question will be sealed and inaccessible to the public.
