QUESTION

Expungement of Arrest

Asked on Jul 09th, 2013 on Expungements - New Jersey
More details to this question:
I was arrested for a DWI and a resisting arrest charge. The resisting arrest was later downgraded to a disorderly persons charge before trial. I was later convicted of a municipal ordinance noise violation. Does the arresting officer need to review and approve my request for expungement? She was extremely rude and belligerent in the courtroom - yelling at my attorney. I am concerned she may still be vindictive. Also, I applied for a gun permit recently and was denied (in court) due to the resisting arrest and dwi. Will this affect my chance of getting the expungement?
