    Default Do You Have to Report a Juvenile Record When Applying for Jobs

    My question involves criminal records for the state of: Florida
    I am wondering, I had a juvie record for aggreviated battery as a juvie. I currently work for the county working with children but I am contemplating to work with DCF ( Dept of child family services. I did a pti ( pretrial divrsion program) was successfully completed. I have contacted the Department of juvie justice and they say I have no record of me and as well as the Florida Dept of Law Enforcement. I am a bit concerned since the record happend back in 85 and there is no record. Since I have had no other altercations with the law since then. I believe the record was automatically expunged when I turned 24, do I still need to report it on an application applying for a state job? The case is 31 years old. Thanks so much

    Depends on the question that you read on whatever application you fill out.

    The record of your arrest and conviction still exists somewhere. The real question is, who can access it and for what reasons? While most employers, even government employers for sensitive positions, will not be legally allowed to access any specifics, they may still be able to see that there is a juvi record for something. For a position like you are contemplating, being caught lying about it may well be worse than the offense itself.
