Question
I have three felonies on my juvenile record from when I was 15. I am now 23 and am seeking my CCW, I have a purchasing permit but was wondering if my juvenile records would stop me? I have a disturbing the peace-being loud after hours on my adult record. On the app. for the CCW it asks have you ever been convicted of a felony in any state, should I say yes based on juvenile records, or no based on adult records? When I do a search on myself in Michigan my juvenile records don't show, but can be accessed at the records dept of the court house. please help! thank-you

Answer
Juvenile records are sealed so you can put no and apply for your CCW.  If you have a purchase permit then you should be able to get a CCW.  You must be clean to get either one.  If for some reason they deny you just apply for restoration of rights for your Juvenile record and you should be good.


Good Luck
