    Question Class C Felony 25 Years Ago

    I was convicted of a Class C Possesion charge 25 years ago here in Indiana. Now I'm trying to start a business with my brother and need a clean record. What Can I do to get this conviction off my record. I've had 2 speeding tickets since that conviction and NOTHING else.

    I understand Indiana to have limited "expungement" options, following a guilty plea or verdict:
    • Seeking a pardon which, if successfully obtained, provides a basis for expungement by "wiping out the guilt"; or

    • Applying to have a record sealed, with the application to be made not less than fifteen years following completion of sentence.

    Quote Quoting Indiana Code § 35-38-5-5 - Petition to limit access to limited criminal history of person discharged from probation, imprisonment, or parole
    (a) This section does not apply to a request to a law enforcement agency for the release or inspection of a limited criminal history to a noncriminal justice organization or individual whenever the subject of the request is described in IC 10-13-3-27(a)(8) or IC 10-13-3-27(a)(12).

    (b) A person may petition the state police department to limit access to the person's limited criminal history to criminal justice agencies if more than fifteen (15) years have elapsed since the date the person was discharged from probation, imprisonment, or parole (whichever is later) for the last conviction for a crime.

    (c) When a petition is filed under subsection (b), the state police department shall not release limited criminal history to noncriminal justice agencies under IC 10-13-3-27.
    The State Police may have forms or information on how to apply; I could not find any online.
