If you were arrested on a misdemeanor other than domestic violence nine years ago and can't produce a record, they may let it slide. I say may because I don't know what DPS's internal rules are.

They know that sometimes expunctions really work, records are lost, courthouses burn down, etc.

The judge isn't likely to have a clue about something that happened 10 years ago.

This offense will not stop you from getting a CHL, even if you pleaded guilty. The fastest way to get it resolved is to get a certified copy of the disposition of your case from the court. Each court has an office that is responsible for records searches like this. Send that document with your application.

It shouldn't be a problem. Reckless driving is a misdemeanor.

Try to get a record from the place where you were arrested. I don't understand all the ins and outs of Texas courts. You may have to go to the city, justice of the peace, or county court.
