Accessing Sealed Juvenile Records
Summary
Sealed juvenile records in Connecticut are generally not accessible without permission, even for an absolute pardon. The Board of Pardons and Paroles may access them, but if the record is from another state, the laws of that state apply. Declining to waive access typically means Connecticut cannot view the record without consent. Consulting a local attorney is advisable for specific legal advice.Full Conversation
Is it likely to do that if it was in another state and it was decades ago
It depends on the specific circumstances and the laws of the state where the record was sealed. Generally, each state has its own rules about the accessibility of sealed records. It’s best to consult with a legal expert in Connecticut or the state where the record exists for precise guidance.

In Connecticut, if you declined to waive your right for them to see your sealed juvenile record, they generally cannot access it without your permission. However, there might be exceptions depending on specific legal circumstances. Consulting with a local attorney for detailed advice would be beneficial.
