Once I complete the application to receive a copy of my Certificate of Absolute Discharge, then what?
After making a copy of the completed application and absolute discharge (if you were sentenced to the Department of Corrections), file the documents at the Court Clerk's desk marked criminal at:
Superior Court of Arizona, Maricopa County
201 West Jefferson
Phoenix, AZ 85003

or

Maricopa County Superior Court
222 East Javelina Avenue
Mesa, AZ 85210

The Court will send you written notice of whether your request was granted or denied. It may take 90 days or more to get your notice. If the court denies your application the court will provide you with the reason for the denial. You may file an application for reconsideration.
