If you have successfully completed deferred adjudication for a misdemeanor or felony, you may be eligible for a Texas expungement or Order for Nondisclosure. An Order for Nondisclosure is a document issued by a judge that orders all public agencies to cease and desist the release of information about your deferred adjudication punishment.
Based on the nature of the alleged offense, certain prescribed waiting times required by statute may exist. The sooner you begin the Texas expungement process, the sooner you can put any marks on your record behind you and move on.

When Am I Eligible for a Texas Expungement?
In the following cases you may be eligible to erase your criminal record through expungement if:
- Your arrest did not result in a criminal charge
- You were found not guilty by a judge or a jury
- Your criminal record exists because someone misrepresented themselves as you when they were arrested (this is identity theft, but you will still need to clean your record)
- You have plead guilty to a Class C misdemeanor alcohol crime such as public intoxication
- A grand jury “no billed” an indictment against you
- You complied with the terms of deferred adjudication for a Class C misdemeanor
When Am I Not Eligible for a Texas Expungement?
People who have a felony conviction on their record in the five years prior to the arrest they are seeking to expunge will not be able to expunge that arrest. Most offenses other than Class C misdemeanors that result in a conviction also cannot be expunged, with certain specific exceptions.
