Legal Answer


What you are referring to is called an Expungement. Only certain offenses that were in Magistrate Court or Municipal Court can be expunged. Cocaine charge are in General Sessions. However, you did not say if theis was in South Carolina or not. If its another state then that might make a difference. Also, sometimes certain drug charges can be reduced and sent to Magistrates Court, so you should check into this to be on the safe side.

Your welcome to call if you'd like
