    Default Juvenile Record Not Showing Up on DOJ Background Check

    My question involves criminal records for the state of: California(Los Angeles)

    In 1991, at the age of 15, I was arrested, along with my 15 year old cousin, for Grand Theft. We were released to our parents and no charges were ever filed. This arrest DOES show up on a California DOJ background check(LIVESCAN) that I requested but does not include a disposition.
    Later that same year, now 16, I was arrested again this time for Receiving Stolen Property. I was convicted in Juvenile Court and sentenced to 30 days(approximately) in Juvenile Hall and received 1 year probation and had to pay restitution all of which I completed successfully. This record DOES NOT show up on the LIVESCAN.
    My questions are these; Why does the one where there was no charges filed show up while the other does not? Does that mean there is no record? Is there another place that I can request a background check, like the FBI?
    I am currently applying to multiple police agencies, both state and federal, and would like to give the background investigators any information they may need.
    Thank you in advance for any help.JM

    You can, in fact, ask the FBI for a copy of your record.

    Instructions are here.
