HYTA and Licensing

[ric]

My question involves criminal records for the state of: Michigan
I was sentenced to HYTA for a felony of intent to deliever. I was wondering if I could obtain a dealers license or a builders license without any problems?

[Mr. Knowitall]

Per statute,

(1) If consideration of an individual as a youthful trainee is not terminated and the status of youthful trainee is not revoked as provided in section 12 of this chapter, upon final release of the individual from the status as youthful trainee, the court shall discharge the individual and dismiss the proceedings.

(2) An assignment of an individual to the status of youthful trainee as provided in this chapter is not a conviction for a crime and, except as provided in subsection (3), the individual assigned to the status of youthful trainee shall not suffer a civil disability or loss of right or privilege following his or her release from that status because of his or her assignment as a youthful trainee.

(3) An individual assigned to youthful trainee status before October 1, 2004 for a listed offense enumerated in section 2 of the sex offenders registration act, 1994 PA 295, MCL 28.722, is required to comply with the requirements of that act.

(4) Unless the court enters a judgment of conviction against the individual for the criminal offense under section 12 of this chapter, all proceedings regarding the disposition of the criminal charge and the individual's assignment as youthful trainee shall be closed to public inspection, but shall be open to the courts of this state, the department of corrections, the family independence agency, law enforcement personnel and, beginning January 1, 2005, prosecuting attorneys for use only in the performance of their duties.
