Expunction and Nondisclosure in Haskell County

Texas law allows eligible people to have criminal records expunged or sealed. Expunction under Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Chapter 55 removes and destroys records for qualifying cases. You file the petition in the district court of the county where the arrest happened. For Haskell County arrests, that means the 39th District Court in Haskell.

If expunction is not available, you may seek an order of nondisclosure for cases that ended in deferred adjudication. Nondisclosure seals records from the public but does not destroy them. Serious felonies and sex offenses do not qualify. The Haskell County District Clerk can tell you what forms apply and what fees to expect.
