hi, my co-worker and now good friend said she was arrested for shoplifting when she was 13 yrs old, went to family court once and though she asked for a trial never heard from them again, now according to her that was about 10 yrs ago and now that she's trying to become a us citizen she does not know whether to put in to the application or not. I told her that she needed to go down to her local police station and ask about her records but she said that the officer told her that her records were sealed and no one can look at it so now i don't know what else to tell her or how to help her. she's also from new york so if anyone knows anything about this stuff please let me know.
thanks!
thanks!
