Louisville, MS – There will be a free expungement clinic in Louisville, Mississippi, beginning at 10:00 A.M., to assist individuals with representing themselves in expunging their criminal records. The event is being hosted by the Mississippi Volunteer Lawyers Project and Pastor Anthony McIntosh. Individuals will receive legal court documents prepared by licensed Mississippi attorneys. Legal advice will be given to participants who may not qualify for services. The event will be held at 521 Armstrong Street in Louisville.
The clinic will also lend legal assistance for those interested in simple estate planning documents such aswills, advanced health care directives, and powers of attorney. Information and assistance will be available regarding foreclosure prevention and other Consumer Protection issues.
The legal clinics are open to the public; Interested participants may pre-register online at www.mvlp.org/clinics to participate in the clinic or simply walk-in. Individuals seeking an expungement must bring their abstract (municipal/justice court), sentencing order (circuit court), indictment, Capias and discharge document. EXPUNGEMENT PARTICIPANTS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RECEIVE SERVICES IF THE PROPER DOCUMENTS ARE NOT OBTAINED PRIOR TO THE CLINIC.
