How long does a felony conviction in Missouri stay on your record?

Your criminal record is permanent, although a case resolved in juvenile court will be absolutely sealed (there are some exceptions even in juvenile court). In some instances, depending on the outcome on the felony, the record may be sealed from public view even for adults. Even a sealed adult record, however, may be used for lawful governmental purposes.


Can you have your record sealed as an adult in nm?

Which record? What record? Any criminal record you may have had as a juvenile is automatically sealed when you turn 18. If you are an adult you can petition the court to have a particular charge "expunged" from your adult criminal record but you must present VERY good reason to the court for requesting it, and even then your request might not be granted. Drivers history, no.


Are the terms expunged and sealed synonymous?

Are court cases public record?

If listed on a current or archived docket then yes. Some cases never see the inside of a court room.

Cases listed on a docket will be reviewed by a judge in open court and the clerk/recorder will log all of these into the public record.

If an individual got caught stealing under 16 will it affect your police check?

If what you are asking is if it will affect your life record, then the answer is yes and no. When you turn 18 (in america) then your youth record is "sealed" and your adult record begins. But, keep in mind that anything that is sealed, can be unsealed. So if you go to court in your adult years, your youth file could be opened.
