Criminal “Expungement” in Minnesota is the process of going to court to ask a Judge to seal a criminal record. When a record is sealed, it does not show up in a criminal background check of the court's records. Serious crimes like murder, aggravated assault, driving while intoxicated, and sex offender crimes are not eligible to be expunged. However, less serious crimes that resulted in a conviction may be expunged under the court’s inherent authority.
If you can show that you have made real changes in your life, that you are a different person now, and that it is very unlikely that you will not commit another crime, the court may expunge your conviction. It is important to note that even when the court grants an expungement of a conviction in MN, the records kept by some agencies, including the BCA (Bureau of Criminal Apprehension), might not be expunged. This is important because the BCA is the most common place to go to check if a person has a criminal background. Check Eligibility
