Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill allows people to ask a court to seal records related to their arrest, conviction, or sentencing for certain criminal offenses. If granted, these records would generally not be disclosed, and the person could state they were never arrested or convicted of that crime, with some exceptions. The bill outlines which offenses are eligible, the waiting periods, and who can still access sealed records.
