When preparing your petition, it’s important to have all the necessary records ready. For most drug charge cases, you’ll need:
- Certified copies of your court records – including the original charge, case disposition, and sentencing order (if any).
- Arrest records – from the police department or agency that made the arrest.
- Proof of program completion – if you participated in Drug Court, Second Chance Probation, or another diversion or treatment program.
- Photo ID – such as a state-issued ID or driver’s license for filing.
Having these documents in order helps the court confirm your eligibility and process your petition without delays. An experienced expungement attorney can assist in obtaining missing records and ensuring your petition is properly filed.
