It depends which country you're in. In the UK - they're not public record - and are protected under the Data Protection Act.
The key phrase is "PUBLIC records." All public records are always just that: Always available to the public for scrutiny.
No it will always be on your record.
It always stays on your record, however the record is sealed to the public after you turn 18.
If you are referring to your 'criminal' record and you are over 18 years of age - it never 'disappears' from your record. Once you are an adult your criminal RECORD is always with you.
What record are you referring to? Your driving record; Stays with you ALWAYS from the very first time you get your licnese issued. Your criminal record; Your juvenile record be shielded from public view after your 18the birthday. Your adult record will always be with you. It doesn't "go away" after the passage of a certain amount of time.
MISDEMEANOR - If you are a juvenile, it will disappear from your public record when you trun 18. If you are an adult it will always appear on your record. Your criminal record, just like your drivers record, stays with you for life.
The record will always exist but it is not able to be viewed by the general public after you turn 18 years of age.
No. It is sealed only to the view of the general public. The courts, law enforcement and government agencies will ALWAYS have access to the complete criminal record.
Restraining orders become a part of public records if they are not issued in direct conjuction with a crime such as sexual assault, rape, where state law provides protection for the survivor of such an assault.
If you were arrested, charged, and convicted of that offense it will ALWAYS remain on your criminal record. That is why it is called a criminal HISTORY.
If someone was arrested for it, it will always be on their arrest record unless they were a juvenile at the time of the offense. If a person was convicted of the crime, then again it will always be on their record. In some cases a lawyer can be hired and a person's record can be expunged to take it off their record. Also that information might not be put on their record to begin with if there was a plea bargain or sentencing agreement.
