Salina Kansas Expungements

In Salina there are two courts that hear the prosecution of criminal matters. The Salina Municipal Court and the Saline County District Court.  Both of those courts offer expungement options as required by Kansas expungement statutes. Costs to file an expungement in Saline County District Court is $195.00.  In the Salina Municipal Court there is a $75.00 filing fee. The type and age of your conviction will dictate whether or not your conviction is eligible for expungement.

When you are looking to have a record expunged it's important to know some of the ways an expungement can become complicated.  A hearing is sometimes required which requires your return to the jurisdiction or court where you were convicted.  It's possible you could have to take the stand and testify as to why the expungement should be granted.  When you're looking to clear your record it's important to do it right the first time as a denied expungement could effect the ease with which the matter is resolved in the future. 

To make sure your expungement is done right the first time contact a knowledgeable Kansas Expungement Attorney who can take care of the matter and help avoid your return to the Salina Municipal Court or Saline County District Court. We strive to obtain speedy, discrete, favorable resolution to your expungement for a reasonable flat fee.

Country Stampede, 2018

Country Stampede 2018 has come and gone and left some in its wake with criminal allegations. The majority of those allegations will arise from the Pottawatomie County District Court, but much also could arise in the Riley County District Court.  DUI charges, MIP charges, MIC charges, batteries, and many other alcohol related offense get charged over this weekend.  There also is an increase in Marijuana and other illegal drug charges. 

If you received a DUI, it can result in the suspension of your driving privileges, regardless of what state you're from.  DUI defendants typically receive a DC-27 form which is the form the Kansas Department of Motor Vehicles will use to begin the procedure to suspend your driver's license.  If you received one of these forms you have a limited time to send in a letter and payment for a hearing to be held before your license can be suspended. A qualified DUI defense attorney can complete this process for you but it is important to engage an attorney early enough that the deadline to file has not passed.

For MIP and MIC charges at Country Stampede, the vast majority will arise in Pottawatomie County District Court, which is located in Westmoreland, Kansas - about 30 minutes drive to the Northeast from the Country Stampede festival grounds. They hand out these charges with great frequency during the festivities and making the return to Kansas for those out of town can add to the already burdensome event of getting a citation.  Contacting an attorney that serves the Pottawatomie County area can sometimes avoid the necessity of coming back and can otherwise smooth a complicated process.
