An expungement is the process where legal records from a criminal conviction are "erased" in the eyes of the law after a certain amount of time.

After an expungement, the criminal conviction needs not to be disclosed by the convict and won't show up in searches by potential schools, employers or some governmental agencies in background checks.

Even though the records are sealed, expungements may be sometimes considered as a prior conviction in a future crime and convictions for certain crimes may continue to prevent the individual from possessing firearms.
