Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between sealing and expunging a record in Maine?▼
In Maine, a sealed record is hidden from public view but still exists and remains visible to law enforcement, licensing boards, and some employers. An expunged record is treated by Maine law as if it never happened — though FBI and federal records may persist regardless of state action. The relief process in Maine is known as "no general expungement (limited post-conviction)" and runs through the Superior / District Court.
How long does an arrest stay on my record in Maine if I wasn't convicted?▼
In Maine, an arrest stays on your record indefinitely unless you petition the court to seal or expunge it, even if charges were dropped or you were found not guilty. Maine's rules for clearing non-conviction records are stricter than for convictions — start with the Maine State Police – State Bureau of Identification (SBI).
What's the difference between a court record and a criminal record in Maine?▼
A court record shows everything filed in a specific case — pleadings, motions, judgments. A criminal record (rap sheet) is a person-centric history from the Maine State Police – State Bureau of Identification (SBI) that aggregates arrests and dispositions across all courts in Maine. Court records are searched by case; criminal records by person.
Does an active warrant show up on a background check in Maine?▼
Yes. Active warrants in Maine appear on name-based criminal background checks through the Maine State Police – State Bureau of Identification (SBI) system the moment they are entered. Some employers also run a separate NCIC warrant query, which catches federal warrants as well.
