LUNDBERG STRATTON, J.

{¶ 1} Today this court must decide whether a trial court is precluded from sealing an applicant's convictions that are eligible to be sealed by statute when one of the convictions is exempt from being sealed. Because we hold that a conviction that is exempt by statute from being sealed also precludes the sealing of convictions that are otherwise eligible, we affirm the judgment of the court of appeals.
