Court case records and proceedings are presumptively public, but occasionally there are compelling reasons for keeping all or parts of them confidential, sometimes permanently but often only temporarily.
How to ask to seal your record. To request sealing, you can use Petition to Seal Arrest and Related Records (Form CR-409), which is translated into Chinese, Korean, Spanish, and Vietnamese. If the order is granted, the judge will use the CR-410 order form. Not all arrests qualify for relief.
There is a new law in California that went into effect in 2023 called the California Clean Slate Act (SB 731). Under the Clean Slate Act, authorities will automatically expunge or dismiss certain arrests and criminal convictions.
Felony Expungement $1,200* (includes a reduction to a misdemeanor when eligible) Sealing of Juvenile or Diversion Records: $3,500. Sealing of Arrest Records under 851.91 PC $1,495. Reduction to Misdemeanor under 17b or Prop 47 $750.
Expungement can seriously improve your chances of securing a job or housing. Sealing a record hides it from most background checks but does not eliminate it. Law enforcement agencies could still see sealed records.
