The Georgia First Offender Act (Georgia Code § 42-8-60) is a legal resource for certain first time criminal offenders to not plead guilty, and have their records expunged if they comply with the law's provisions. Upon successful compliance with this law, the defendant's criminal record is expunged on application to the court.
