Sample Affidavit

Wouldn’t it be a wonderful thing if our law allowed a person to cleanse his record of an arrest or criminal conviction? Isn’t there some basic element of fairness with allowing an individual who once was in trouble with the law to get his arrest or conviction erased, enabling the person to get off to a fresh start?

Although it is largely unknown to the general public, Oregon law (ORS 137.225) contains a procedure to enable an individual to gain expungement of an arrest or criminal conviction. This little known law should be used more widely by persons who are concerned about past blemishes relating to criminal allegations, whether or not they resulted in a conviction.
