Victor v.
Commonwealth
Facts:
Petitioner in Fairfax
moved the court to expunge police and court records relating to a sale and/or
distribution of marijuana charge as well as a reckless driving charge. The
circuit court granted the motion. Petitioner was charged with the sale and/or
distribution of marijuana in 2001 and that charge was subsequently nolle
prosequi. The parties agreed that petitioner was entitled to expungement of
records relating to the marijuana charge pursuant to Va. Code Ann. §
19.2-392.2(A) (2011). Further, the continued existence and possible
dissemination of information relating to that charge might cause a manifest
injustice to petitioner. Accordingly, the motion to expunge all police and
court records relating to that charge was granted. With regard to the reckless
driving charge, he did not plead guilty to reckless driving, nor did the trial
court make a finding of guilt as to the reckless driving charge. He was never
found guilty of the charge he sought to have expunged. When he pled guilty to
improper driving, he pled to an offense separate and distinct from reckless
driving. Thus, expungement was proper.

Holdings:
The Virginia
Court made the following holding:
- Virginia's expungement
statute is embodied in Va. Code Ann. § 19.2-392.2. Under § 19.2-392.2(A),
if a person is acquitted of a crime, if a nolle prosequi is taken or if
the charge is otherwise dismissed, that person may file a petition setting
forth the relevant facts and requesting expungement of the police and
court records relating to the charge. Upon a determination that a
petitioner has a right to seek expungement under § 19.2-392.2, the trial
court must then review the petition and supporting materials to determine
whether the continued existence and possible dissemination of information
relating to the arrest of the petitioner causes or may cause circumstances
which constitute a manifest injustice to the petitioner.
