In the Matter of the Expungement Petition of Robert Ross
A-0990-07T4
05-06-08
The expungement statute, N.J.S.A. 2C:52-2, permits
expungement of an indictable conviction only if the petitioner
"has not been convicted of any prior or subsequent crime." We
construed the statute and held that if a petitioner commits two
crimes at different times, he is precluded from seeking
expungement even if he is sentenced and convicted for the two crimes on the same day.
