Motion to Seal
Client was a hard-working Biotech Professional who had previously pleaded out to a Drinking and Driving Case (OUI) with Attorney Barabino. The case, despite an accident, had been granted a Continuance Without a Finding (CWOF) and eventually dismissed. After client’s dismissal entered, Attorney Barabino went back to the court with his successful probation record and affidavits of the impact a simple dismissal has on a record and its effect on his employment. After a hearing, the court took the matter under advisement and today, we received notice that the motion to seal his dismissal is ALLOWED.
Result: PETITION TO SEAL ALLOWED

Motion to Seal Record Chapter
Client was an all-around pleasant, hard-working professional who had been charged with soliciting last year. The case was dismissed—but he wanted to make sure that no employer could see that he was charged in the past. Attorney Barabino prepared a motion to seal client's record. The motion included a number of items including the client's background and reason for filing, affidavits and attachments. On the day of the hearing, client and Attorney Barabino presented the petition in court and the judge ALLOWED the motion. As a matter of law, client may now truthfully answer on any job application that he has never been arrested for, or charged with, any crime.
