Expungement Petition Form {CIV_EXP_02_A}

CIV EXP 02 A - PETITION FOR EXPUNGEMENT OF ADULT RECORD. This form is used in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware by individuals who seek to have certain criminal charges or cases removed from their official record. Filed pursuant to 11 Del. C. § 4374, the petitioner must list each criminal case or charge individually and provide details such as the charge, offense date, disposition, and disposition date. The petitioner must also explain how the continued existence and potential dissemination of the criminal record causes a manifest injustice—meaning that the presence of the record negatively impacts their life in a substantial way. If granted, the petition requests that all related law enforcement and court records be expunged, removed from public view, and transferred to the State Bureau of Identification. It also asks the court to relieve the petitioner of any obligation to disclose the expunged arrests or convictions, except in specific circumstances as defined by law. www.FormsWorkflow.com
