In Louisiana, an expungement is the process of sealing a criminal record so that it is no longer available to the public. Louisiana Felony and Misdemeanor case expungement forms are used to request a court order for the expungement of criminal records. There are two types of Louisiana Felony and Misdemeanor case expungement forms: the Felony Expungement Petition and the Misdemeanor Expungement Petition. The Felony Expungement Petition is used to request the expungement of a felony record and the Misdemeanor Expungement Petition is used to request the expungement of a misdemeanor record. Both forms require a petitioner to provide detailed information about their case, including the date of arrest, the charges that were brought against them, and the disposition of the case. The forms also require the petitioner to attest to their eligibility for an expungement. Once the forms are completed and filed in the relevant court, a judge will review the application and determine whether to grant or deny the request for expungement.
