Oklahoma Deferred Expungements

Oklahoma Deferred Misdemeanor Expungements

My Misdemeanor Deferred Case is Complete. Now What?

All scenarios have their own unique circumstances. However, Oklahoma law allows for expungement for both misdemeanors and felonies after completing a deferred sentence. The judge may have accepted a deferred sentencing arrangement for your case. However, both the arrest and case record remain public record after completing probation or the period of deferred sentencing. Since a deferred case is not a conviction, you should qualify for expungement.
