Expunge your record in Colleyville

An arrest in Colleyville doesn't have to follow you. Here's where Colleyville cases actually get cleared, what qualifies, and how we handle the entire process for a flat fee — without you setting foot in a courthouse.

Where Colleyville cases get cleared

Expunctions and nondisclosure petitions aren't filed at city hall — they're filed in the courts of the county where the arrest happened. For most of Colleyville, that means Tarrant County. The Colleyville Police Department, the county sheriff, the clerks, and the Texas DPS all hold pieces of your record, and each must be named in the petition for the order to erase it everywhere.

Tarrant County expunctions are filed in the district courts in Fort Worth, where criminal matters are centered at the Tim Curry Criminal Justice Center. Felony cases run through the criminal district courts; misdemeanors through the County Criminal Courts.

Records for a Tarrant County arrest typically sit with the arresting agency — Fort Worth PD, Arlington PD, the Sheriff's Office, or one of the county's many suburban departments — plus the county clerk, district clerk, and DPS, all of which must be named and served in the petition.

Local practice notes

Tarrant County has long operated deferred prosecution programs for young first-time offenders, under which completed cases are dismissed — dismissals that generally ripen into expunction eligibility. The DA's office reviews expunction petitions closely for statutory compliance, so precise drafting matters here; defective petitions get contested rather than waved through.

What can be cleared

The rules are statewide: arrests that ended in dismissal, acquittal, a grand-jury no-bill, or no charges at all can generally be expunged — erased completely. Completed deferred adjudication and certain first-time convictions (including many DWIs) can be sealed with an order of nondisclosure. Not sure which describes your Colleyville case? That's exactly what the free review answers.
