Adult offenders who have appeared in court and have had a charge withdrawn, dismissed, quashed, or acquitted may apply to have their fingerprints and photo image destroyed. Persons making application may do so in person or by written request to the Records Branch. All requests whether in person or by letter must include requestor's name, date of birth, date of court decision, address, and phone number, as well as the applicable fee.

This service is provided to adult offenders with charges that were generated by the Greater Sudbury Police Service only. If charges were initiated by another Police Service, please contact them directly as we can only process our charges.

Written requests may be forwarded to:

Greater Sudbury Police Service
190 Brady Street
Sudbury, Ontario
P3E 1C7
Attention: Central Records

NOTE: A confirmation letter will be sent to the requestor once the application has been completed.
