LASP Staff Attorney Deborah Steeves will present information about record-clearing. Pennsylvania’s Clean Slate law allows certain criminal cases to be sealed – taken out of public view – so they cannot be used as barriers to employment, housing, etc. She will discuss:

• How to find out what is on your record in Pennsylvania (https://ujsportal.pacourts.us/CaseSearch).

• Whether or not your record can be expunged or sealed.

• How to get help clearing your record.
