    Default Tennessee Expungement

    The statute is a bit more complex, but in short the charge must be dismissed, a not guilty verdict returned, the defendant successfully completed a qualifying diversion agreement, the defendant exonerated by the governor, or the defendant a first-time offender (other than a sex offender) who committed the crime while below the age of 21 and who has no subsequent record..

    Default Tennessee Expungement

    You mean, if you were subsequently convicted of an offense as an adult? If you were subsequently convicted, you are excluded from obtaining an expungement. If you were not convicted as outlined above, you should qualify for expungement on the basis of the non-conviction.
