Summary

The bill lets people who receive a first conditional discharge for possession of a controlled substance or a related non‑violent property crime ask the court to seal and restrict their sentencing records, criminal file, and arrest information. It creates a clear process for courts, clerks, and law‑enforcement agencies to limit public access, with limited exceptions. The measure aims to protect the privacy of individuals while still allowing authorized agencies to view the records when needed.
