Syllabus

Conceded error; Loc.App.R. 16(B); motion to seal record; expungement; hearing. Judgment is reversed and remanded. A review of the record reveals that the defendant's motion to seal her record was denied by the court without first holding a hearing. The court's basis to deny the defendant's motion was that the defendant had passed away although the defendant is alive. The City concedes the error. Therefore, we reverse the municipal court's judgment denying the defendant's motion to expunge and seal her record and remand to the court to set a hearing date and hold a hearing on the motion.
