I had a charge when I was 14 (i am now 27) for Aggravated Assault which is a felony. However, I completed all court requirements and my case was disposed as adjudication withheld. My juvenile counselor told me that I could check "no" on applications that asks if I have a conviction. I went through my whole life believing this. I now have a BA in criminology and On an application I want to fill out it asks 1). have you ever been convicted of a felony? and 2). Have you ever had the adjudication of guilt withheld that was a felony or a 1st degree misdemeanor. Do I have to check yes to either of these? When an FDLE NCIC check was done on me for my internship job (DCF), it came back clean and I had checked yes to the conviction question because I was too scared to check no, but the NCIC and fingerprint check came back clean which was ran through FDLE. However, when FDLE ran a check for me to get a job they found my juvenile record and disqualified me from employment. What did they see that DCF didn't? On the FDLE app, I checked no for conviction but explained the charge and that it was a juvenile adjudication withheld record. Was my time wasted in college? Do I have to check yes to either of these questions? Please don't be mean, I realize my mistake, and have dealt with it. I have redeemed myself and paid my dues to society for my mistake.

what u did when u were 14 was befor u became an adult and it should not show anyways.....so I would check No. anything u did before u turned 18 was juvie. Unless u were charged as an adult and they would have told u that when u were 14 and the only 14 year old in Florida charged as an adult was the boy that killed his teacher in Lake Worth
U should be fine |

i would check no but you said when the FDLE check was ran it found the juvinile one. that is a hard one. i would ask how they want that answered? if you ask then explain why you are asking then they will know why and what happened. so if another company does a check and fines it they will already know the situation.
if you check yes, then in an interview and explain then they will also know the reasonings. that is still a hard choice.
just mark no then when you get the first interview explain to them then of the situation. but some how you need to tell the future employer of this charge. |

I have one of those to and I work in a computer support job. Yes you wasted your time in college :)
Seriously though, a lot of states seal juvenile records. You may want to consider consulting a lawyer to see if you can figure out what's going on. I agree that a conviction when your 14 should not haunt you for the rest of your life. |

You need to hire a good lawyer. Anything you hear on Yahoo answers is nonsense. This is a very important issue in your life. Stop ******* around and hire an attorney. |
