Berry James WALKER, Jr., Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 85-1821.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    July 24, 1986.
    Rehearing Denied Sept. 9, 1986.
    Berry James Walker, Jr., pro se.
    James W. Hart, Orlando, for appellant.
    
      Jim Smith, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, James Easley and Kevin Kitpatrick Carson, Asst. Attys. Gen., Daytona Beach, for ap-pellee.
   PER CURIAM.

We affirm the order appealed from on the ground that section 958.13(1), Florida Statutes (1985) requires that the records relating to the arrest, etc. of persons adjudicated to be youthful offenders be subject to expunction under the same provisions of law as apply to expunction of records of other adult offenders. Section 943.058, Florida Statutes (1985) provides the basis for the expunction of criminal records and appellant does not qualify for relief because he was adjudicated guilty of the charges stemming from the arrest to which his petition for expunction pertains. § 943.058(2)(b).

AFFIRMED.
