You can expunge cases that have been dismissed or for which you have been found not guilty. This looks like you were issued a summons and no bond was ever filed although it was set in the amount of $1,000. Did you appear on the case and take care of the matter? If not, you may have an outstanding warrant. If so, what happened?

Depends on the final disposition of the case. If the case was dismissed of you were found not guilty, then it is possible to have it expunged.

It depends on the outcome of the case. In general, the case would have had to be dismissed to be eligible for expunction.
