My child was adjudicated on a felony offense. Can he/she still have his/her record sealed?
It is possible to have your child’s record sealed unless the charge is one listed under Section 53.045 of the Juvenile Justice Code or described in Section 51.031 of the Juvenile Justice Code (engaging in habitual felony conduct) AND the Grand Jury issued a certificate of approval to the petition alleging the offense. The Court will distribute a copy of the law relating to the sealing of files and records and the conclusion of the disposition hearing in your child’s case.
