Bill	Juveniles: sealing of records.	Existing law generally subjects any person under 18 years of age who commits a crime to the jurisdiction of the juvenile court, which may adjudge that person to be a ward of the court. Under existing law, juvenile court proceedings to declare a minor a ward of the court are commenced by the filing of a petition by the probation officer, the district attorney after consultation with the probation officer, or the prosecuting attorney, as specified. Existing law authorizes a judge of the juvenile court to dismiss a petition, or set aside the findings and dismiss a petition, if the court finds that the interests of justice and the welfare of the minor require that dismissal, or if the court finds that the minor is not in need of treatment or rehabilitation.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20172018	AB 529	California AB 529 (20172018)	bill	Juveniles: sealing of records.	enacted	Mark Stone	9	28	5	2017-02-13	2017-10-11	openstates	ocd-bill/487cc376-af0a-4ee3-83c8-2786b35abf4e	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB529	8e9c2b8d6961453d087dc14d05420c2a865ae86aadcaae6d42c0059f7be685ec	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca
