About clearing a record in New Jersey

You can clear your New Jersey record. New Jersey law lets you expunge certain arrest records and certain convictions under N.J. Rev. Stat. § 2C:52-1 et seq. The process uses a petition filed with the court that handled the case and may involve a court hearing.

In New Jersey, the usual path clears one crime, or several crimes from one judgment or one short string of related events. A separate clean-slate petition can clear all of your eligible convictions ten years after your most recent one.
