IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON

STATE OF WASHINGTON,
                                                   No. 75744-0-1
                       Appellant,
                                                   DIVISION ONE
           V.

I.C.G.,                                            UNPUBLISHED OPINION
DOB: 11/10/99,                                                                  •••••••

                                                                                ••

                        Respondent.                FILED:    DEC 1 8 2017

       PER CURIAM. The State appeals an order sealing I.C.G's records

following his completion of a deferred disposition and the dismissal of his

convictions for harassment and cyberstalking. The State contends "[t]he trial

court violated RCW 13.40.127 and RCW 13.50.260 by sealing the Respondent's

juvenile criminal case file upon successful completion of a deferred disposition

before the Respondent's eighteenth birthday." Appellant's brief at 1. This

contention is controlled by our recent decision in State v. H.Z.-B.,    Wn. App.

,   P.3d        (2017)(holding that statutes pertaining to record sealing and

deferred dispositions indicate that juvenile record should be sealed when case is

dismissed and do not prohibit sealing until juvenile's eighteenth birthday).

       Affirmed.
                              For the Court:
