Uhmmmm... having had to get clearances and apply for jobs, anything done as a minor is sealed and cannot (repeat: cannot) be considered, unless the minor was tried as an adult for a felony offense. Just so you know I was arrested when I was 16 for misdemeanor possession of marijuana. The records were sealed until I was 18 and at that time expunged. I've had to carry clearances and it has had absolutely no effect on anything other than me learning a well deserved lesson. If the police had just patted me on the head and sent me on my way, I'd have never learned the lesson that spending three hours scared half to death gave me. Scott A.

According to the suit itself, what they were looking for from the judgement was to have her record expunged, or have it reclassified as a detention. And to have the zero-tolerance policy and lack of citations for minors changed. (Which second part had already happened by the time the suit was appealed.) She was arrested. Handcuffed. Booked. Fingerprinted. Detained for three hours. Given a record. To which, at any future date if she is asked on application,employment and security forms "Have you ever been arrested", she would have to answer "Yes." (see page 6 of the case (USCA 1st - 06-7149a). And it is not the equivilent of a parking ticket. It is deliquency. The same as being arrested for fighting, tagging, spitting on police as a minor. Read the case. And the other cases cited.
