Provide for setting aside convictions and expunging records for convictions and adjudications for concealed weapon offenses, provide a private cause of action for violations of the Security, Privacy, and Dissemination of Criminal History Information Act, waive sovereign immunity, and provide for retroactivity

Summary

The bill would let anyone convicted of a concealed‑weapon offense file a motion to have that conviction set aside and the record sealed, even if the law has changed since the conviction. It also creates a private right to sue state agencies or officials who violate Nebraska’s criminal‑history privacy rules, waiving sovereign immunity and setting a four‑year filing deadline. The measure applies retroactively to past cases but did not pass, being indefinitely postponed.
