Clear your Louisiana record.

You can clear your Louisiana record. Louisiana law lets you petition to expunge certain arrest records and certain convictions under La. Code Crim. Proc. art. 977 (misdemeanors) and art. 978 (felonies). The process uses a petition filed with the court that handled the original case, with a potential hearing.

Louisiana only allows one offense or set of offenses arising from a single incident to be expunged per petition.
