Expunging and Sealing Marijuana Convictions

Marijuana arrests involving less than 30 grams are currently in the process of being automatically expunged in Illinois. However, hiring the Law Offices of Hannah Garst, P.C. can help to achieve expungement sooner. The schedule (and deadlines) for law enforcement agencies to automatically expunge qualifying offenses and records is based upon the initial date of arrest.

o    Arrests that occurred between January 1, 2013 and June 25, 2019, shall be automatically expunged prior to January 1, 2021

o    Arrests that occurred January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2012, shall be automatically expunged prior to January 1, 2023

o    Arrests that occurred before to January 1, 2000 shall be automatically expunged prior to January 1, 2025.
