Re: court records /sealed

It really depends on what court records you are talking about. Some records can be sealed, others cannot. If you have been convicted of a crime, it is unlawful for an employer to discriminate against you on the basis of a misdemeanor conviction. If you have been convicted of a felony, that's a different story. For a clearer answer, please provide more facts.
