WHAT IS AN EXPUNCTION IN TEXAS?

An expunction is a legal process that orders courts, police, and agencies to destroy or return all records of an arrest. Once granted, the law allows a person to deny the arrest ever occurred. This is the most powerful way to clear a record in Texas.

WHAT CRIMES CAN BE EXPUNGED IN TEXAS?

Expunction eligibility depends on the outcome of a case. A record may be expunged if charges were dismissed, never filed, resulted in acquittal, or ended with a qualifying deferred outcome. 

Not all offenses qualify for expungement in Texas. The attorneys at Trey Porter Law offer free eligibility checks to confirm whether a case qualifies for expunction or nondisclosure.

For more information about expunctions and nondisclosures, review the FAQ Guide.

HOW LONG DOES AN EXPUNCTION TAKE IN TEXAS?

Most expunctions take three to six months. The timeline depends on the court docket and how quickly state agencies respond. After the judge signs the order, background vendors, police, and courts must clear all records.

WHERE ARE EXPUNCTION CASES HEARD IN MCKINNEY?

McKinney expunction cases are filed in the Collin County District Courts, located at:

  • Collin County Courthouse – 2100 Bloomdale Rd., McKinney, TX 75071 – (972) 548-4100

Collin County Justice of the Peace Courts and municipal courts, including McKinney Municipal Court and surrounding city courts in Frisco and Plano, handle Class C matters connected to expunction eligibility. Knowing which court has jurisdiction is critical to clearing a record quickly.
