Legal Aid and Defender Association Inc. (LAD) will conduct a free clinic on expungement of criminal records for residents of Wayne, Macomb, and Oakland counties on Saturday, Jan. 25, from 9 a.m. to noon at Fellowship Chapel, 7707 W. Outer Drive.
Michigan allows for expungement, or removal from the public record, of records of single criminal convictions after five years, according to LAD’s legal rights handbook for former offenders.
Not all convictions can be expunged, including those for crimes that carry possible life sentences and traffic convictions such as drunk driving, or where there is lifetime probation, the handbook says.
For additional information about the clinic, call 313-967-5625.
