Accepts filings for juvenile records to be expunged or sealed. Having a record expunged allows the court to permanently remove cases from juvenile's record. Having a record sealed allows the court to place the specific case in a separate part of juvenile's record, only accessible by government agencies under specific circumstances. There are certain felony offenses that are not eligible to be expunged/sealed.
