Petition For Expungement Of Records (Less Than 3 Years Has Passed) {CC-DC-CR 72C}

CC-DC-CR-072C - PETITION FOR EXPUNGEMENT OF RECORDS Acquittal, Dismissal, Not Guilty, or Nolle Prosequi (LESS THAN 3 YEARS HAS PASSED SINCE DISPOSITION). This form is used in the Circuit Court or District Court of Maryland by individuals seeking to have police and court records removed from public access when a criminal charge did not result in a conviction. This specific form applies to cases where the individual was acquitted, the charges were dismissed, a finding of not guilty was entered, or a nolle prosequi (formal abandonment of the charge) was filed—and less than three years have passed since the disposition. It may also be used in cases transferred to juvenile court or between courts. The petitioner affirms that the charge was not related to a non-incarcerable traffic violation and requests that all records related to the arrest or charge be expunged. The form includes a General Waiver and Release, in which the petitioner releases law enforcement and other entities from liability connected to the arrest or confinement, contingent upon the expungement being granted. www.FormsWorkflow.com
