Legal Question in Criminal Law in Ohio

Charged vs convicted question

To make a long story short, I was 19 and convicted in juvenile court.

Would this conviction be likely or unlikely to be on my record now that I am 27?

I am a college graduate seeking work that cleaned up my life.

Thank You.

Re: Charged vs convicted question

You should check with the court. Most 19 year olds are dealt with in adult court, so it is a little unusual a circumstance. Even if it is on your record, you can look into having it sealed/expunged so that you don't have to report it to the companies you are applying to. It is a relatively easy process... just a lot of paper work and one hearing.
