Bill	Juvenile Delinquency Record Expungement	Under current law, there is limited access to juvenile delinquency records. The bill restricts that access by making certain records public only after a court orders that a child be charged as an adult, consistent with recent changes to the direct file statute, and by eliminating the requirement that the prosecuting attorney notify the school principal of minor offenses. The bill also ensures that the juvenile and his or her attorney can access the juvenile's records, and that juvenile record information is available to agencies that require the information for research purposes, with protections against the disclosure of identifying information.	us/states/co	Colorado General Assembly	2017A	HB 17-1204	Colorado HB 17-1204 (2017A)	bill		enacted	John Cooke Pete Lee	26	15	21	2017-02-23T07:00:00+00:00	2017-05-18T06:00:00+00:00	openstates	ocd-bill/9516b14d-9114-47e5-897a-c22368c87701	http://leg.colorado.gov/bills/hb17-1204	92a365909414cdbaaa1c078e3c60210595da05d97663b9a0a00a0a04e4bdd00a	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-co
