Florida statute 943.059 allows for an individual to seal the records of an arrest and court case when 1) the adjudication was withheld or the person was acquitted after trial, 2) the court did not withhold adjudication for one of the prohibited offenses listed below, 3) the individual has no previous convictions, and 4) if the individual has not sealed or expunged any other criminal record. Sealing allows an individual to have the criminal record sealed and hidden from public viewing. After a criminal record is sealed, it is confidential and unavailable to the general public, future employers, or other inquiring entities. However, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) will reveal the sealed record to a law enforcement agency, The Department of Juvenile Justices, a contractor or licensee dealing with children, The Department of Education, any public school, any private school, or the Florida Bar. After 10 years have passed, the sealed record may be eligible for expungement. To see if you are eligible, take our free online eligibility test.
