What To Know About Expungements In New Mexico

In 2020, the New Mexico Criminal Record Expungement Act (CREA) went into effect. Under CREA, more individuals may file petitions with the court to expunge or seal their criminal records from public view. If you use CREA to expunge your criminal record, then employers, schools, landlords and other members of the public cannot see the past infractions on your record. However, they are still visible to court officials and law enforcement officers.

Is Expungement Right For Me?

If you have been arrested, or charged, but not convicted of a crime, your case might be a good candidate for expungement. I believe that when you are innocent, and the prosecutor decides not to go through with a trial, you shouldn’t have to live with the public accusation of wrongdoing on your record for the rest of your life.
