Los Angeles, CA asked in Criminal Law for Arizona

Q: In 2018 the court set aside my disorderly conduct and my record from the Glendale Municipal Court states “13-907.01” ?

This was originally a 1 night stay in jail, but my legal guardians spoke to the judge to keep me for longer & the judge was forced to make my charges worse. It is a Disorderly Conduct (Domestic Violence) charge, that in 2018 was set aside with my parents in court by a judge.

I just looked up the case and it says — APPLICATION TO VACATE CONVICTION PURSUANT TO 13-907.01

This was at the Glendale Municipal Court in Glendale Arizona.

13-907.01 online in Arizona states that I was charged with a prostitution charge and by evidence proved I was being trafficked and the judge set it aside, when my case had 0 to do with prostitution. It should be “13-907. “ instead, correct?

Thank you, Dylan

A: I'd have to look more into this. That said, if you were a juvenile at the time there could be options for having your record sealed all together. Also, there is a new law that will go into effect on 1/1/2023 that will provide an avenue for expungement in Arizona. This may be something you want to explore. If you have more questions about this, most criminal defense attorneys (myself included) will discuss your case with you at no charge.
