SUMMARY:The New York State Record Sealing Law
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual workshop\, please click the Zoom link below to register: \nzoom.us… Tuesday\, April 28\, 2026\, 1 – 2pm  \nDid you know that certain criminal convictions in New York State (NYS) can be sealed? Do you know what it means to seal a criminal record? The NYS Record Sealing Law (Criminal Procedure Law §160.59) was established in October 2017\, and it allows people having no more than two convictions (only one of which can be a felony) in New York to be able to apply to have their convictions sealed. While sealing does not erase your criminal record\, it significantly limits who can have access to it. People interested in attending this webinar should know that there are important time frames to be aware of regarding their most recent conviction or release from incarceration that need to be met before applying for record sealing. Also\, most misdemeanor convictions are eligible for sealing\, however\, there are some specific felony convictions that are NOT eligible for sealing which we will point out. \nThis webinar will cover:• Eligibility criteria for the record sealing law• The process for requesting that records be sealed• Review of some Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)\, and• Categories of convictions that are NOT eligible for sealing. \nFor participants with disabilities\, if you require any reasonable accommodations to participate in the event\, please notify the Customer Engagement unit at least 72 hours prior to the event at virtualworkshops@labor.ny.gov. We will make every reasonable effort to secure an accommodation that will meet your needs.  \nRegistration Link: zoom.us… More info: zoom.us…
