Felon from PA may need Expungement to get Jobs

 Felon hopes expungement will help job search

Q:  Hi my name is Kiki an I'm a first time felon and I would like to know if I  am eligible to get it expunged or sealed. I live in NYC but I received my felony in the state of Pennsylvania. I was 17 years old an am now 20 an its very hard to get a job or continue my education I was wondering if you can help me. Thank you

A:  Hello Kiki,

You state that your felony occurred when you were 17 years old.  In many states, juvenile records are automatically sealed.  By sealed, I mean they are only visible to the court system, law enforcement and government agencies.  The prosecutor of your case will be able to give you this information. 

If your case was not automatically sealed, you must pursue any action in Pennsylvania.  You will not be able to it in New York.  I am not an attorney and this is only intended as basic information and not legal advice.  Many ex-offenders and felons looking for jobs need legal advice.  I suggest you contact an attorney that is familiar with the statutes as they relate to expungement and sealing of records in the sate of Pennsylvania

I hope this helps.
