Have you successfully completed "deferred adjudication probation" in Texas? If you think no one can find out about your criminal case...think again! Your case is a matter of public record, even if it was dismissed when you completed your probation, unless you obtain an order of nondisclosure.

As of September 1, 2003, an "Order of Nondisclosure" is a legal procedure through which, under certain circumstances, a court order can be obtained which prohibits governmental agencies from disclosing the existence of your case. This remedy is available for both misdemeanors and felonies, and is available ONLY if you successfully completed deferred adjudication. And if this probation was for a class "C" misdemeanor, you may be eligible for an expungement (also known as an expunction), rather than an order of nondisclosure.

Once an order of nondisclosure is granted by a Texas court, your criminal history arrest record information is sealed.  This criminal history information is removed from your criminal record, and no longer appears on government computers.

We handle orders of nondisclosure throughout the State of Texas.

*Each petition for an order of nondisclosure must be judged on its own merit. The judge will consider a number of factors when determining whether to grant any such request. Under Texas law, an order of nondisclosure cannot be obtained on an offense for which you have been convicted.
