Syllabus

Pandering sexually oriented matter involving a minor; age not established; expungement. Judgment affirmed. By the State's own concession, the age of the victims was not definitively established. Thus, the record did not demonstrate that the defendant was ineligible to have his record expunged because the victims were less than 13 years old. The trial court did not abuse its discretion in finding that the defendant expressed remorse for his crimes and had been rehabilitated. Thus, the trial court properly granted the defendant's motion for expungement.
