    Sealed

  2. jimobasa says:

    If you have valid reason and legal right to possess that information, you will know where to find it

  3. Kate J says:

    Records of minors are sealed, meaning that they are kept private by the courts. You should not be able to find out this information, as it would be an invasion of privacy.

  4. spaznskitz says:

    records on minors are sealed.

  5. weez says:

    absolutely sealed

  6. Lori B says:

    It is sealed.

  7. Countess Nefertiri says:

    Records on Minors are generally sealed but somehow these things can be found out… probably through a ton of paperwork, good cause and a few lawyers.

  8. pjallittle says:

    As evidenced by most of the answers to your question, it is a popular belief that juvenile records are sealed. Nothing could be further from the truth and access to these is simple.

    Each State decides for themselves how they wish to deal with criminal records, minors or adults. See what California, our most populated State says to your question:
    _______________________________________________
    Juvenile Records

    Your Juvenile records do appear on your criminal record. Upon your 18th birthday, you are eligible to petition to have your juvenile records sealed. Once sealed, no one can gain access to them and they will be completely destroyed five years from the date of sealing.

    Juvenile records are not automatically sealed upon your 18th birthday. You must affirmatively petition the juvenile court to have them sealed. You can do this by filing out a form and filing it with the juvenile court in the county in which you were convicted. Contact the juvenile court in the county you were convicted, and ask them to send you a copy of the form used in that county. Check to see if they have any special filing requirements such as additional photocopies or the need to serve copies of the petition on any government agencies, and get the correct information for filing by mail. Usually, there is no fee.

    If you graduated from the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Justice , your juvenile conviction(s) will have been dismissed as part of your graduation. If you do not petition to have your juvenile records sealed and destroyed, they will remain on your record until your 38th birthday, then they will be destroyed.
