You need to file a motion to dismiss under Section 1203.4 of the Penal Code.  This is commonly known as an Expungement.  Note: an expungement will NOT erase your record or seal it.  What the record will show is that you were arrested, convicted, successfully served a period of probation, and then the case was dismissed. Nevertheless it is a good idea to expunge your criminal record. You may be able to do this yourself.  Be really nice to the court clerk when you go down there.  Otherwise, contact a local attorney to assist you with this important procedure.   Louis J.
