QUESTION
How do I have a youthful offender status erased or completely sealed?
Asked on Mar 24th, 2014 on Labor and Employment - Wisconsin
More details to this question:
In 2008, I received a youthful offender. I volunteered as a reserve deputy and worked for a local sheriff's office which I disclosed all information. I finished with the police academy and began looking for a job in another location but my youthful offender case has disqualified me from employment even though I was told that I couldn't be discriminated against for employment purposes because it was a sealed case. State police agencies has access to these files even though they are sealed. I’m looking for a process to erase these cases completely.

you should speak with an attorney that handles such matters. I do not. You may receive a copy of your criminal history report. Below is from the GBI web page, http://gbi.georgia.gov/ Click "services" Obtaining Criminal History Record Information Georgia criminal history records can be obtained from local Sheriff's or Police Departments. Please contact a local Georgia agency about specific requirements for obtaining a copy of your Georgia criminal history record.

Check your State statutes, contact an attorney and/or contact the prosecuting attorney (district attorney?) about how to file a motion to expunge or change your youthful offender status.
