The Kentucky Petition for Expungement (For Acquittal, Dismissal with Prejudice, or Failure to Indict) is a legal filing to the court by an individual who has been charged with a crime but has been acquitted, dismissed with prejudice, or not indicted. This petition seeks to have the individual's records, including any arrest or court records, expunged from the public record. The filing of the petition does not guarantee that the records will be expunged, as there are certain requirements that must be met. The three types of Kentucky Petition for Expungement (For Acquittal, Dismissal with Prejudice, or Failure to Indict) are: 1. Acquittal — This is when the individual has been found not guilty of the charges by a jury or judge. 2. Dismissal with Prejudice — This is when the charges against the individual have been dismissed by the court and the case cannot be refiled. 3. Failure to Indict — This is when the grand jury has declined to indict the individual on the charges. Once the Petition for Expungement is filed, the court will review the petition and determine if the individual is eligible to have his or her records expunged.
