Expungement of Kaysville Criminal Records
Utah's Clean Slate law provides for automatic expungement of certain qualifying records once a waiting period passes with no new offenses. Not every charge qualifies. More serious convictions require a manual petition rather than automatic clearing. Information on Clean Slate eligibility is at cleanslateutah.org.
Records not covered by Clean Slate can be expunged through a petition filed at the Second District Court. The BCI must issue a certificate of eligibility before the petition is submitted. Visit bci.utah.gov/expungements to check eligibility and start the process. After expungement of a Kaysville criminal court record, the case is sealed and removed from public searches including XChange and BCI reports.
