Sometimes your RAP sheet will contain arrests and convictions that don’t belong to you. Each state has a different process for removing this information.
To remove convictions that don’t belong to you, select the state where your criminal record is located using the drop-down menu below:
If you are the victim of mistaken identity or identity theft, challenge your record with the Connecticut Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection's (DESPP) State Police Bureau of Identification (SPBI). You must show proof of the mistake and proof of your identity.
If someone has stolen your identity and you wish to challenge the information on your RAP sheet, you must submit any written proof you have of identity theft (police reports, court orders, etc) to the agency advocate and/or the Special Licensing Detective as soon as possible. You should also contact the State Police Bureau of Identification to formally correct your record and make sure this doesn’t happen again.
