Methodology & Technology

Methodology

  • Volunteers will gather data on what the general requirements for eligibility are on a state by state basis.
  • This data will be accessible via a REST or GraphQL api (see the Backend repo for specifics).
  • A simple step-form application will allow users to determine whether they are likely to be eligible for expungement to their criminal records (see the Frontend repo for specifics).

Suggested Flow

  1. Splash Page / Select State
  2. Select Type of Conviction
  3. Select Years since Conviction
  4. Optional Further Criteria
  5. Results

Why Steps and not one unified form? Easier on mobile, easier to add new ones in based on individual state requirements, easier for the user to cruise through on a public computer without bystanders seeing it.
