The client, a 26 year old who graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Tufts University in partnership with The School of The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA, had a CORI which consisted of a “CWOF” on two counts of Larceny over $250.00 and Malicious Destruction of Property over $250.00, (felony offenses), hired Criminal Defense Attorney Steven J. Topazio to seal her criminal record so that the charges would no longer appear on her CORI. The client plans to graduate this year with a Masters in Creative Arts Therapy from Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, New York, and planned to seek employment as a teacher and did not want any future employer to question her about the charges if they reviewed her CORI. Today, Attorney Topazio appeared before the court and persuaded the judge to seal his client’s case. As a result, by statute the client can now truthfully state for all purposes that she has never been arrested or charged with any crime.
