About clearing a record in Maryland

You can clear your Maryland record. Maryland law lets you expunge certain arrest records and shield certain convictions under Md. Code Ann., Crim. Proc. § 10-110. The process uses a petition filed with the court that handled the case and may involve a court hearing.

A Maryland court can grant you only one shielding petition in your lifetime. One petition can cover more than one conviction, but only convictions from courts in one county.

Maryland expunges certain marijuana records, some of which may be expunged automatically after three years.
