QUESTION
Am I eligible to expunge my juvenile record?
Asked on Oct 06th, 2015 on Expungements - New Jersey
More details to this question:
Hello, When I was 16 I was charged with 2c:18-2 Burglary and 2c:5-2 Conspiracy. I was sentenced to 1 year probation and 30 days of pass. A few months later I was charged with 2c:20-3 theft by unlawful taking. That extended probation for another 6 months. I have had a clean record and have not been charged with anything since. I am now almost 23 and looking to expunge my record but unable to find any hard information on eligibility. Thank you.

We do multiple expungements wvery week. The proper way to answer the question is to know the precise timeframes of what happened. For example, juvenile records are not public records for most employers. However, they are available to the police and military. They normally cannot be expunged. However, if your probation extended beyond your 18th birthday, there may be an adult record. Where are you finding these records ? Are employers accessing these records ? Please call to discuss.
