Is a person's past records of traffic violations, employement history, court records, bankrupt filings, and misdemeanors records movable? How much will it cost to remove them?
The driving records are automatically expunged after 3 years.
For instance, if you got a traffic ticket in 01/01/07. You went to court, and then subsequently, went to traffic school. The points will not show on your driver's license.
The fact that you did attend traffic school, and your violations are kept on file. The traffic school history is maintained to ensure that within an 18 month period you are grace for point removal is not exploited. If you get a second ticket ... the points will show!
The violation is masked. Your employer or insurance companies will not see that you have points. After 3 years, the violation will be expunged.
Records are permanent where I live in Pennsylvania. I often have seen driving and criminal records on teletype carbons unfold down to the floor. The DOT can reduce points down to zero after x amount of years but the violations themselves stay on the driving record.
Many states have so-called "first-offender" programs which allow the accused to petition for a record expungement of a non-violent misdemeanor after a short time of probation, counseling, fines, and community service. Many courts will entertain an expungement petition for an old criminal record upon proof that the person later became an upstanding citizen.
I don't know much about the bankruptcy laws. However, the court needs to maintain records in some manner to assure that one doesn't file a second bankruptcy too short a time after the first one.
