expungement of criminal record:
I recently applied for a gun permit, and was declined on the basis of a felony conviction int he State of Missouri, Jackson county. The charge was, if I remember correctly, possession of controlled substances. Thsi was about 1976 or so. I remember the judge, at that time, stating in courst that the charge would be expunged if I stayed out of trouble after that. I have had no toehr problems , except traffic tickets since, but the charge is still on my record. What can I do to get this expunged?
- Is this your question? Add additional information

You must take affirmative action to get your record expunged; it does not happen automatically. I would hire a Jackson County attorney to do it or it is possible the probation department will do it for you for free. However note that depending on your original charges you may be banned from owning a gun for life under federal law. An expungement will not change that.
