Q: Court after I finished a program? I was arrested November 2014, for a 3rd degree grand theft. December was my court date and My judge gave me a program of 6 months. I had to pay back 1,400 + 50 community hours + a $300 program fee + show up to the office once a month and sign paperwork. I’ve officially done it ALL. My last time to show up is in a couple of days. My officer told me I was going to get a new court date after the program was done. My question is… what’s the court date for? And DO I HAVE to show up?

Answered . My guess, having practiced in the 305 for nearly a quarter of a century, is that your final court date will be for the PTI completion memo to be formally read into the record and then for the State to formally announce a nolle pros (dismissal of your case) on the record.
Most of our 305 Judges do not “require” your attendance but there are a few sticklers who will, and in any event all of them would appreciate seeing your smiling face and simultaneously offering you congratulations on your hard-earned dismissal.
So, who is your Judge?
I hope that I have been helpful in answering your question.

Congratulations again on your successful completion. Once it is formalized you should, if you choose, be able to expunge the record. However, in this regard you should know that this is 2015 and we are forehead deep into the internet age, where nothing is private, sacred or truly hidden from public scrutiny.
Sadly, sealing (and expunging) only applies to certain (not even to all) government agencies and has no effect whatsoever on private (er, extortionist) enterprise, who compile and maintain arrest information and then demand that you pay them off to remove your information from their database and public access. Worse still, after you “buy back your information”, then you can count on there being another private company lurking, somewhere, sometime, somehow, just waiting for you to pay them off as well. Its a seemingly never-ending vicious cycle.
Regardless, some folks feel better having their arrest expunged from the public records, and if you do then you should be able to accomplish that objective.
