A criminal case can be expunged from a person’s record, allowing them to start again free of penalties and disabilities. This allows you to lie about your criminal history on job applications in the private sector. It also permits you to withdraw a guilty plea in exchange for a not guilty one, resulting in the charge(s) being marked as dismissed in any subsequent background checks or live-scans.
If you have a criminal record, expunging it will give you a lot of new chances. This is one of the biggest benefits. Your arrest will still show up on your record when a possible landlord, creditor, employer, or school checks your criminal history. But it will also show that your sentence was overturned in the interest of justice. This gives you an even greater possibility of getting what you want.

When Can I Get My Case Expunged?
When your probation is up, you can immediately submit a request to have your case expunged. It is possible to apply for an expungement at the conclusion of your probationary period if the court discharged your supervision early. (Section 1203.3, Penal Code). If you are found guilty of a crime or violation but don’t get probation, you must patiently await one year from the date of the ruling before you can file petition for expungement.
