Can You Expunge a Record of Dismissal
My question involves criminal records for the state of: VIRGINIA
hello, i was arrested 3 years ago for public intoxication, spend the night(5hours) in jail. when i went to court my case was dismissed. I was wondering if i can get it expunged from my record? if i do, will the arrest(spend the night in jail) be expunged too? or do i have to get 2 expungements*? also i checked my name on inteligatorcom.com criminalpages.com-- (my name show up, and you are able to buy full access for a few bucks)-- if i get expunged will it disappear/not be visible online for the public?? location: virginia
oh, thats the only thing on my record(i dont even have speeding tickets),.
thank you for your help.. any other options/tips are welcome..
Re: Can You Expunge a Record of Dismissal
If you were dismissed, yes you can get it all expunged. The info below is for Fairfax County's court but it's the same all over the state

Private websites are a mixed bag. The records there may or may not be automatically cleaned up.
