I have a lengthy youth record from being young and stupid, I was later charged as an adult but I received a conditional discharge meaning it only stays on my record for 3 years, my question is does my youth record still get deleted or because I was found guilty of an adult offence does the youthr ecord now become my adult record even though my one and only adult cahrge was discahrged and will subsequently be deleted?

As I always advise, find out either from the sentencing court, a criminal lawyer or a public defenders office associated with the court of sentencing
It would help for you to have the exact name of the charges, the docket # and how old you were/year it happened for all these charges you mention

My conditional discharge was in canadian adult court, my one and only adult charge, assault and destruction of property, I was given a conditional discharge and 1 year probation, I was originally charged January 2010 and sentenced June 2011, my question was because I was charged in adult court would my previous youth record then be attatched and no longer be eligible for deletion when it reached its expiry date, my final youth charge was a year before I was arrested for my adult charge, I was 19 years old when I was charged in adult court, my question and the answer to what I'm seeking is this, will my youth record still be deleted because I received a conditional discharge or will it be included on my adult record permanently just on the fact that I was found guilty in adult court before my youth records expiry date, I wish to know if I have to apply for a pardon to have my youth record dealt with or if it will fix itself

Contact the clerk of the courts you were involved with because it involves criminal procedure laws specific to Canada
Like I say the public defenders office associated with your courts or a criminal lawyer can best answer those questions
