In some cases, juvenile arrest records are sealed or expunged automatically or by operation of the law, without any petition or request being filed by the person with the juvenile record. In those cases, the sealing or expunction of those records are not classified as a prior seal or expunge for purposes of later having an adult record sealed or expunged.
Moreover, if a juvenile enters a juvenile diversion program in exchange for having the charges dropped after the successful completion of the diversion program, then the expunction of those records do not count as a prior seal or expunge which would make an individual ineligible for for a judicial sealing or expunction pursuant to Florida Statutes Section 943.059 or 943.0585.
