2021 Tennessee Code|Title 40 - Criminal Procedure|Chapter 32 - Destruction of Records Upon Dismissal or Acquittal|§ 40-32-101. Destruction or Release of Records

    All public records of a person who has been charged with a misdemeanor or a felony shall, upon petition by that person to the court having jurisdiction in the previous action, be removed and destroyed without cost to the person, if:   The charge has been dismissed;   A no true bill was returned by a grand jury; or   The person was arrested and released without being charged.     A person applying for the expunction of records because the charge or warrant was dismissed in any court as a result of the successful completion of a pretrial diversion program pursuant to §§ 40-15-102 — 40-15-107, shall be charged the appropriate court clerk's fee pursuant to § 8-21-401 for destroying such records.     If a person seeking expunction pursuant to subdivision (a)(1)(A) was arrested or charged due to a case of mistaken identity, the person may provide evidence of the relevant circumstances in the petition and request that the court order the expunction to be expedited. If the court finds that the person was arrested or charged due to mistaken identity, the court shall order the Tennessee bureau of investigation and any other entity that performs expunction to expunge the records of the person in an expedited manner.   As used in this subdivision (a)(1)(C), “mistaken identity” means during the investigation of a criminal offense, a person has been arrested, charged, or indicted for a criminal act and subsequent investigation has revealed that the person arrested was not the individual the arresting officer believed the person to be.     Notwithstanding subdivision (a)(1)(B) or (a)(6), the records of a person who successfully completes a pretrial diversion program pursuant to §§ 40-15-102 — 40-15-107, or a judicial diversion program pursuant to § 40-35-313, shall not be expunged pursuant to this section, if the offense for which the person was diverted was a sexual offense as defined by § 40-39-202, or a violent sexual offense as defined by § 40-39-202.   Except as provided in subsection (j), a person is not entitled to the expunction of such person's records if:   The person is charged with an offense, is not convicted of the charged offense, but is convicted of an offense relating to the same criminal conduct or episode as the charged offense, including a lesser included offense; provided, however, any moving or nonmoving traffic offense shall not be considered an offense as used in this subdivision (a)(1)(E); or   The person is charged with multiple offenses or multiple counts in a single indictment and is convicted of:  One (1) or more of the charged offenses or counts in the indictment; or   An offense relating to the same criminal conduct or episode as one (1) of the offenses charged in the indictment, including a lesser included offense.       Upon a verdict of not guilty being returned, whether by a judge following a bench trial or by a jury, on all charges for which the defendant was accused, the judge shall inquire of the person acquitted whether such person requests that all public records associated with the charges for which such person was acquitted be removed and destroyed without cost to the person and without the requirement that the person petition for destruction of such records. If the person requests that the public records related to such charges be removed and destroyed, the court shall so order. If the person acquitted does not request that such records be destroyed at the time the judge inquires pursuant to this subdivision (a)(1)(F), but subsequently requests that such records be destroyed, the person shall be required to follow the petition procedure set out in this section.     All public records of a person required to post bond under § 38-3-109 or § 38-4-106 [repealed] shall be removed and destroyed as required by this chapter upon the expiration of any bond required, if no surety on the bond is required to fulfill the obligations of the bond.   Upon petition by a defendant in the court that entered a nolle prosequi in the defendant's case, the court shall order all public records expunged.   For purposes of this section, “court” includes any juvenile court exercising juvenile court jurisdiction over an adult who is charged with an offense that was committed when the person was eighteen (18) years of age or older.   All public records concerning an order of protection authorized by title 36, chapter 3, part 6, which was successfully defended and denied by the court shall, upon petition by that person to the court denying the order, be removed and destroyed without cost to the person.   Except as provided in subsection (f), it is the intent of this section that a person is entitled to the expunction of public records in a criminal case only if the person successfully completes a pretrial diversion program pursuant to §§ 40-15-102 — 40-15-107 or a judicial diversion program pursuant to § 40-35-313, the charges against such person are dismissed, or the person is entitled to have all public records removed and destroyed by reason of one (1) of the results specified in this section.      “Public records,” for the purpose of expunction only, does not include arrest histories, investigative reports, intelligence information of law enforcement agencies, or files of district attorneys general that are maintained as confidential records for law enforcement purposes and are not open for inspection by members of the public and shall also not include records of the department of children's services or department of human services that are confidential under state or federal law and that are required to be maintained by state or federal law for audit or other purposes. Whenever an order of expunction issues under this section directed to the department of children's services or department of human services, the department shall notify the defendant if there are records required to be maintained as directed above and the basis therefor. The department shall delete identifying information in these records whenever permitted by state or federal law. These records are to be expunged whenever their maintenance is no longer required by state or federal law.   “Public records”, for the purpose of expunction only, does not include appellate court records or appellate court opinions.      Release of confidential records or information contained therein other than to law enforcement agencies for law enforcement purposes shall be a Class A misdemeanor.   This section shall not be construed to deny access to any record to the comptroller of the treasury or the comptroller of the treasury's agent for purposes of audit investigation; the comptroller of the treasury or the comptroller of the treasury's agent having this access shall protect the confidential nature of the records that are not otherwise public under other statutes.   Release of arrest histories of a defendant or potential witness in a criminal proceeding to an attorney of record in the proceeding shall be made to the attorney upon request.      Any court ordering the expunction of a person’s public records of a criminal offense, including orders issued as a result of the successful completion of a diversion program pursuant to §§ 40-15-105 and 40-15-106 or judicial diversion program, shall send or cause to be sent a copy of the expunction order to the Tennessee bureau of investigation within thirty (30) days from the date of the expunction order for entry into its expunged offender and pretrial diversion database. The order shall contain the name of the person seeking expunction, the person’s date of birth and social security number, the offense that was dismissed, the date and cause of the dismissal and the date the order of expunction is entered.   [Deleted by 2019 amendment.]     It is the intent of the general assembly that no fee ever be charged a person who is petitioning a court for expunction of records because:  The charge against the person was dismissed for a reason other than the successful completion of a diversion program pursuant to §§ 40-15-102 — 40-15-106 or § 40-35-313;   A no true bill was returned by a grand jury;   A verdict of not guilty was returned, whether by the judge following a bench trial or by a jury; or   The person was arrested and released without being charged.      All public records of a person who has been charged and convicted with a misdemeanor or felony while protesting or challenging a state law or municipal ordinance whose purpose was to maintain or enforce racial segregation or racial discrimination shall, upon petition by that person to the court having jurisdiction in the previous action, be removed and destroyed without cost to the person, if:  The charge has been dismissed;   A no true bill was returned by a grand jury;   A verdict of not guilty was returned, whether by the judge following a bench trial or by a jury;   The person was arrested and released, without being charged; or     Thirty-seven (37) years or more have elapsed since the date of conviction for the offense being expunged and the petitioner has not been convicted of any other offense, excluding minor traffic violations, during that period of time;   Any period of supervision due to conviction has been completed;   The offense was a misdemeanor, Class C, D or E felony not otherwise excluded pursuant to subdivision (f)(1)(E)(iv), or, if committed prior to November 1, 1989, would be an included Class C, D, or E felony if committed after November 1, 1989;   The offense was not a Class A or Class B felony or a Class C felony described in § 40-15-105(a)(1)(B)(iii), a sexual offense described in § 40-15-105(a)(1)(B)(ii), or an offense prohibited by title 55, chapter 10, part 4, vehicular assault as prohibited by § 39-13-106, or if committed prior to November 1, 1989, would not be an excluded offense if committed after November 1, 1989; and   The district attorney general is served a copy of the petition for expunction by certified mail, return receipt requested, and the district attorney general does not file an objection with the court within twenty (20) calendar days of receipt of the petition.       All public records of a person required to post bond under § 38-3-109 shall be removed and destroyed as required by this section upon the expiration of any bond required, if no surety on the bond is required to fulfill the obligations of the bond.   Upon petition by a defendant in the court that entered a nolle prosequi in the defendant's case, the court shall order all public records expunged.   If the person charged or convicted is deceased, the petition may be filed by a person who is able to establish legal authority to act on the behalf of the deceased person.   Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, upon request of the petitioner, records or documents subject to the destruction requirement of this subsection (f) that are utilized exclusively for education purposes and are displayed in public museums, libraries, and buildings are exempt from the destruction requirement.

The offenses of a person who is an eligible petitioner under this subdivision (g)(1)(E) shall be considered a single offense for the purposes of this section so that the person is eligible for expunction consideration if all other requirements are met.     Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, effective July 1, 2012, an eligible petitioner may file a petition for expunction of that person’s public records involving a criminal offense if:  Except as provided in subdivision (g)(1)(E), at the time of filing, the person has never been convicted of any criminal offense, including federal offenses and offenses in other states, other than the offense committed for which the petition for expunction is filed; provided, however, that any moving or non-moving traffic offense shall not be considered a criminal offense as used in this subdivision (g)(2)(A);   At the time of the filing of the petition for expunction at least five (5) years have elapsed since the completion of the sentence imposed for the offense;   The person has fulfilled all the requirements of the sentence imposed by the court in which the individual was convicted of the offense, including:   Payment of all fines, restitution, court costs and other assessments;   Completion of any term of imprisonment or probation;   Meeting all conditions of supervised or unsupervised release; and   If so required by the conditions of the sentence imposed, remaining free from dependency on or abuse of alcohol or a controlled substance or other prohibited substance for a period of not less than one (1) year.

Upon filing of the petition, the clerk shall serve the petition on the district attorney general for that judicial district. Not later than sixty (60) days after service of the petition, the district attorney may submit recommendations to the court and provide a copy of such recommendations to the petitioner.   Both the petitioner and the district attorney general may file evidence with the court relating to the petition.   In making a decision on the petition, the court shall consider all evidence and weigh the interests of the petitioner against the best interests of justice and public safety.   If the court denies the petition, the petitioner may not file another such petition until at least two (2) years from the date of the denial.   The district attorneys general conference shall, by September 1, 2012, create a simple form to enable a lay person to petition the court for expunction under this subsection (g).

A petitioner shall be entitled to a copy of the order of expunction and such copy shall be sufficient proof that the person named in the order is no longer under any disability, disqualification or other adverse consequence resulting from the expunged conviction.   [Deleted by 2019 amendment.]   There is created within the district attorneys general conference a district attorneys expunction fund. Moneys in the district attorneys expunction fund shall be used to defray the expense incurred for the required record search and preparation of the petition and the proposed order of expunction under this subsection (g) or subsection (h). Any remaining moneys in the district attorneys expunction fund may be used by the district attorneys generals for law enforcement purposes, including, but not limited to, the hiring of expert witnesses, training, matching federal grants directly related to prosecutorial duties, the purchase of equipment and supplies necessary to carry out prosecutorial functions, the expenses of travel in the performance of official duties of the office, provided all reimbursement for travel expenses shall be in accordance with the provisions of the comprehensive travel regulations as promulgated by the department of finance and administration and approved by the attorney general and reporter, salaries and salary supplements, which may only be paid through the district attorneys general conference for support staff. Such payments shall be subject to the limitation of § 40-3-209(b) on the use of any funds to supplement the salary of any assistant district attorney. Moneys in the district attorneys expunction fund shall not revert to the general fund but shall be carried forward into the subsequent fiscal year. All funds in the district attorneys expunction fund shall be subject to annual audit by the comptroller of the treasury.   There is created within the state treasury a public defenders expunction fund. Moneys in the public defenders expunction fund shall be used to defray the expense incurred by conducting the educational activities required pursuant to this subsection (g). Subject to annual appropriation, any remaining moneys in the public defenders expunction fund may be used in furtherance of the services and programs provided by public defenders for each judicial district. Moneys in the public defenders expunction fund shall not revert to the general fund but shall be carried forward into the subsequent fiscal year.    Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, an order of expunction granted pursuant to this subsection (g) or subsection (h) entitles the petitioner to have all public records of the expunged conviction destroyed in the manner set forth in this section.   Additionally, such an expunction has the legal effect of restoring the petitioner, in the contemplation of the law, to the same status occupied before the arrest, indictment, information, trial and conviction. Once the expunction order is granted, no direct or indirect collateral consequences that are generally or specifically attendant to the petitioner's conviction by any law shall be imposed or continued.   A petitioner with respect to whom an order has been granted under this subsection (g) or subsection (h) shall not be guilty of perjury or otherwise giving a false statement by reason of the person's failure to recite or acknowledge the arrest, indictment, information, trial or conviction in response to any inquiry made of the petitioner for any purpose.   Expunction under this subsection (g) or subsection (h) means, in contemplation of law, the conviction for the expunged offense never occurred and the person shall not suffer any adverse effects or direct disabilities by virtue of the criminal offense that was expunged.   Notwithstanding § 39-17-1307(b)(1)(B) and (c), a petitioner whose petition is granted pursuant to this subsection (g) or subsection (h), and who is otherwise eligible under state or federal law to possess a firearm, shall be eligible to purchase a firearm pursuant to § 39-16-1316 and apply for and be granted a handgun carry permit pursuant to § 39-17-1351.     The clerk of the court maintaining records expunged pursuant to this subsection (g) or subsection (h) shall keep such records confidential. These records shall not be public and can only be used to enhance a sentence if the petitioner is subsequently charged and convicted of another crime. This confidential record is only accessible to the district attorney general, the defendant, the defendant's attorney and the circuit or criminal court judge.   [Deleted by 2019 amendment.]      For purposes of this subsection (h), “eligible petitioner” means a person who was convicted of a nonviolent crime after January 1, 1980, if the person:  Petitioned the court in which the petitioner was convicted of the offense and the judge finds that the offense was a nonviolent crime;   Petitioned for and received a positive vote from the board of parole to receive a pardon; and   Received a pardon by the governor.     Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, effective July 1, 2013, an eligible petitioner under subdivision (h)(1) may file a petition for expunction of that person's public records involving the crime. The procedures in subdivisions (g)(3)-(6), (8), (12) and (13) will apply to a petitioner under this subsection (h).     A person applying for expunction of records pursuant to this section or § 40-35-313 shall be charged the appropriate court clerk's fee pursuant to § 8-21-401 unless the person is entitled to have such records removed and destroyed without cost to the person.   A person who is ineligible for expunction of the person's records pursuant to subdivision (a)(1)(E) shall, upon petition by that person to the court having jurisdiction in the previous action, be entitled to removal of public records from electronic databases, as provided in this subsection (j), relating to the person's arrest, indictment, charging instrument, or disposition for any charges other than the offense for which the person was convicted. The public records shall be removed from the relevant electronic databases of the national crime information center system and similar state databases, and the person shall be entered into the Tennessee bureau of investigation's expunged criminal offender and pretrial diversion database with regard to the offenses removed pursuant to this subsection (j). The public records shall also be removed from any public electronic database maintained by a court clerk. Nothing in this subsection (j) shall require court clerks to expunge records relating to an offense for which the person was convicted. Court clerks shall not be liable for any errors or omissions relating to the removal and destruction of records under this section.    Notwithstanding subsection (g), effective July 1, 2017, for purposes of this subsection (k), an “eligible petitioner” means a person who was convicted of no more than two (2) offenses and:  Each of the offenses for which the petitioner seeks expunction are offenses that are eligible for expunction under subsection (g);   The offenses were:   Two (2) misdemeanors; or   One (1) felony and one (1) misdemeanor;       At the time of the filing of the petition for expunction at least five (5) years have elapsed since the completion of the sentence imposed for the most recent offense; and   If one (1) of the offenses was drug fraud pursuant to § 53-11-402(a)(3), at the time of the filing of the petition for expunction at least ten (10) years have elapsed since the completion of the sentence imposed for that offense; and     The person has fulfilled all the requirements of the sentences imposed by the court for each offense the petitioner is seeking to expunge, including:   Payment of all fines, restitution, court costs, and other assessments for each offense;   Completion of any term of imprisonment or probation for each offense;   Meeting all conditions of supervised or unsupervised release for each offense; and   Remaining free from dependency on or abuse of alcohol or a controlled substance or other prohibited substance for a period of not less than one (1) year, if so required by the conditions of any of the sentences imposed.       A person may petition for expunction of two (2) offenses under this subsection (k) only one (1) time.   [Deleted by 2019 amendment.]   Subdivisions (g)(3)-(6), (8), (12), and (13) shall apply to a petition filed under this subsection (k).
