Can juvenile records be used against you as an adult?
Hey I'm curious to know if you have a juvenile record but are now an adult and have no adult record. Can your juvenile record be brought up in court as evidence? Or is everything in your juvenile record irrelevant and will be thrown out if you are an adult?
Thanks,

The Sheriff of my county (Hennepin county, MN) to whom granted me my Permit to Carry about a year ago now has taken it away because it was deemed I was too dangerous to carry. The only other thing I have on my record other than the charge when I was 16 is a Misdemeanor Disorderly Conduct I got in 2007. I have no violent crimes and I have never been arrested for anything other than that juvenile crime. I also have a couple of speeding tickets. They brought up everything thing that has ever been on my record at the civil case even the speeding tickets. I said to myself many times "what does any of these things have to do with me carrying a handgun" since they all happened years ago, but it was kind of a no-win situation because I can't afford legal representation.
