Kelly Keegan Has Arrest Records Expunged for Hopeful Medical Student

Kelly Keegan’s client, a college student, was arrested in the City of Minneapolis for Felony Fifth Degree Possession of a Controlled Substance. The Hennepin County Attorney offered her a diversion program, which she completed. The client was never formally charged, but records remained of her arrest. The client hoped to become a doctor and feared the arrest record would inhibit her chances of acceptance to medical school. Kelly petitioned the court for an expungement of records of the client’s arrest. Kelly’s efforts were successful, and the records were sealed before the client applied to medical school.
