Building shared record-clearance infrastructure
With support from the California Access to Justice Commission, we've built the Clean Slate Engine. CSE is a secure end-to-end application that uses computational law principles to extract data from California criminal records, analyze remedies, and generate county-specific petition packets for attorney review.
Expanding the capacity of legal organizations
Legal aid organizations, public defenders, and reentry programs use the Clean Slate Engine in their own workflows, giving their staff and volunteers the infrastructure to handle more record-clearance cases efficiently.
Making clean slate resources accessible
Through our Clean Slate Hub, TAP provides free, practical resources for navigating record clearance. The Hub includes an interactive California county map with filing procedures and court requirements, a clean slate FAQ, declaration guidance and examples, and step-by-step instructions for obtaining a CA RAP sheet. These resources help individuals understand the process and give practitioners accessible guidance for preparing and filing petitions across the state.
