Juvenile Proceedings and Records. In 1994, 27 States permitted the inclusion of juvenile arrest and/or court disposition records in central record repositories. Four of these States -- Hawaii, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Virginia -- authorized a separate juvenile record center. In some States, criminal history records for juveniles tried as adults may be stored in the central repository, with fingerprints serving as the basis for the records.
