The typical three exhibits with respect to the criminal history regarding the misdemeanor that you are writing about would be the following:
1. the criminal complaint filed against you;
2. the docket entry in your criminal case showing the guilty plea or conviction with respect to the criminal conviction that you want sealed;
3. the sentencing order issued by the court with respect to the criminal matter that you were convicted of that you want sealed.
