Juvenile Waiver Return Form
the sentence was ordered under that particular statute. If the terms and conditions of
s. 973.015 have been met, the record will indicate "successfully completed." If the
subject was given probation or any other extended terms and conditions, a follow-up
letter will be sent to the court indicating that the CIB is aware of the "special
disposition" and requesting that the court notify the CIB of any status change. When
the CIB receives follow-up information from the court, the record will be modified
to indicate "successfully completed" or "special disposition revoked" as directed by
the court. If the special disposition is revoked, the associated sentence will be
appended to the record.
The computer currently flags any record that has a "special disposition" and when
the date of any special terms is reached, that "flag" is removed prior to the release of
the record. If an agency inquires on a record that has an adjudication under s.
973.015 and the term has been reached, the computer will route the inquiry to a
clearinghouse terminal. If the date of the terms has been reached without any
subsequent notification from the court, CIB will assume that the terms have been met
and annotate the record with a "successfully completed" for release. If CIB receives
notification after the fact that the terms were not "successfully completed," the
Bureau will change the "successful completion" to "special disposition revoked" and
append the associated sentence.
All Clerks of Court should be aware of the definition of "expunction" as clarified in
this case. Records should be "sealed" and not destroyed to be in conformance with s.
973.015.
This form will be used to return dispositions relating to 973.015/961.47 (1) and
juvenile waivers if they do not pass the quality control check process at CIB.
Death Notice
This form is used by law enforcement agencies to notify the CIB that an individual
whose fingerprints are on file, is deceased. Upon receipt of this notice the CIB
properly annotates the criminal history database to reflect this information.
Agencies who become aware of the death of any person having a State Identification
Number (SID) must complete the form and send it to the CIB. Accuracy is essential
and the SID must be included. If possible, an inked rolled fingerprint impression
from the deceased can be placed on the form to provide positive identification.
Agencies investigating a death should obtain all ten inked impressions on a regular
fingerprint card and the death notification should be forwarded to the CIB.
In cases where an unidentified corpse is found, all ten inked impressions must be
obtained on a fingerprint card and submitted to the CIB, where a technical search
will be made in an effort to determine an identification.
Expungement of Records
Wisconsin Statute 165.84 (1) states in part "any person arrested or taken into
custody and subsequently released without charge, or cleared of the offense through
court proceedings, shall have any fingerprint record taken in connection therewith
returned upon request." An individual must be cleared of ALL offenses on a given
arrest event in order to qualify for an expungement. The Crime Information Bureau
