Summary

The law lets people petition to erase certain criminal records when their case ended without a conviction, either marked as ‘no finding’ or simply terminated. It covers many misdemeanors, some felonies, and related attempts or conspiracies, but bars anyone with a new conviction or a pending case. The change gives a clearer path for individuals who were never found guilty to clear their records.
