An Act To Expand The Types Of Convictions Eligible For Sealing Through A Post-Judgment Motion To Seal Criminal History Record Information

Summary

The bill would broaden the list of offenses a person can ask a court to seal, adding many drug‑related crimes and most Class D offenses while still excluding violent or firearm‑related crimes. It lets individuals with those prior convictions file a motion to seal each conviction if they meet the statutory requirements. The goal is to give more people a chance to clear their records and improve access to jobs, housing and other opportunities.
