Indiana Second Chance Law (IC \u00a735-38-9)<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

The Indiana Second Chance Law (IC \u00a735-38-9) permanently\nseals a person\u2019s criminal record, prohibiting public access through background\ncheck portals. If an employer, landlord, Dean of admissions, bank, or other\nparty runs a background check after your records have been expunged, they will\nnot see any such records on the results. This privacy gives you more opportunities\nin life, such as job promotions, school enrollments, professional licensing, loan\napprovals, and more affordable housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who Can See Your Records<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

It is important to understand that expunged criminal records are not gone and deleted forever. There is a significant difference between a criminal pardon and expungement<\/a>. After your past criminal records have been expunged, law enforcement agencies are still authorized to access them for the purpose of criminal investigations and proceedings. Although law enforcement and governmental agencies can see expunged criminal records, the general public cannot. This includes friends, family, employers, schools, banks, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are various qualifiers that determine when and what\nyou can expunge from your criminal records. Some of the most influential factors\ninclude the amount of time since the date of the arrest or conviction, the\nseverity of the crime, sentence completion, pending criminal charges, drivers\u2019\nlicense status, and more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
