Was this conviction in adult court, or juvenile court?

If it was in adult court, you betcha it'll follow you until you've assumed room temperature.

If it was in juvenile court, in most cases you no one will ask and you need not say.

There are some exceptions, and you can deal them IF they ever arise.
