No. Court records are public. The difference is the affirmative action to inform and other restrictions. Which, frankly, are not appropriate for all cases. Not every instance of statutory rape (which is strict liability with no defense allowed) is an instance of malicious and predatory acts. Especially since the age of consent in CA is 18 rather than 16/17 in other states.
Understood. I've never agreed with the BS registry stuff. Like urinating in public or 18 vs 16 couples dating and the parents get pissed. The registry is much different than your standard public record court cases. I agree that it should be fixed but this gives a far left judge too much power in helpong hiding someone's past from the public. Does it not?
