It depends on the laws of your state but a juvenile court may have jurisdiction over a person even once they turn 18. In some states, a person under the age of 21 may continue to be under the juvenile court’s jurisdiction. He should talk to his probation officer about this and find out whether his probation will end once he turns 18 or if he will have to continue his probation until June. His probation officer should be able to answer this. Once he is off of probation, he can ask the court how to make a request to have his record expunged/destroyed as it’s not necessarily an automatic thing. Good luck to your son.
