I am 21. I had a juvenile record which I was told was expunged when I turned 18. I assumed this was true since I passed both a BCII and FBI background check last year to get my teaching certificate. I Googled myself yesterday and found that the entire judgment of my appeal is available in PDF from the Ohio State Supreme Court website. I don't believe it is appropriate for them to release that information to the public, whether the records were sealed or not, because it was a juvenile case and my identity should not have been released. I have contacted the juvenile court to start the expungement process. Should I sue the State Supreme Court to make them take that off the internet? What else can I do to get it removed and make sure it doesn't happen again?

Sue them. They probably won't respond to anything else.

Just because you were a juvenile does not mean that your record gets expunged when you turn 18. Your best course of action is to contact the OSSC and ask for their assistance.

reckoning on the severity of the crime, once your 18 it truly is with you always. Felonies are those that stay with you. at the same time as your lower than 18 misdemeanors do not stay yet felonies ought to nicely be expunged.

I would make a complaint and stick to it. If you get no response from your state take it to the Feds. That isn't fair!
