TEXAS DEPT. OF PUBLIC SAFETY v. J.H.J.

No. 14-06-00949-CV.

274 S.W.3d 803 (2008)

TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, Appellant v. J.H.J., Appellee.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Houston (14th Dist.).

November 13, 2008.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

J. Francis Davis, Austin, for Appellant.

Stephen A. Doggett, Richmond, for Appellee.

Panel consists of Justices ANDERSON and BROWN, and Senior Justice HUDSON.

OPINION

JEFF BROWN, Justice.

The Texas Department of Public Safety appeals from a trial court judgment that expunged the arrest and probation records of appellee J.H.J. Because appellee does not meet the statutory expunction requirements, and because we have no equitable power to extend the protections the expunction statute affords, we must reverse the trial court's judgment and render judgment denying appellee's expunction request.
