Expungement of Criminal Record/Arrest

To have your record expunged you must file legal documents with the Court and the District Attorney's office. The Court does not have these forms. You can contact an attorney or file the forms yourself. Procedures For Setting Aside Arrest Record or Conviction: The Deschutes County District Attorney’s website provides information on the proper procedures to follow when requesting records be expunged (set aside). You can access this information at http://www.co.deschutes.or.us/go/government/district-attorney/district-attorney/criminal-prosecution/expunging-records. The Expungement process usually takes 8 - 12 weeks minimum to remove from your record.
