Summary

The bill repeals the current adult expungement statute and creates a new process that lets more people have convictions removed and reduces the time they must wait before filing. It also adds a provision allowing the expungement of juvenile arrest records and updates other statutes so that expunged convictions no longer block certain public appointments. The changes aim to give individuals a clearer path to restore their civil rights and improve access to jobs and public office.
