Requires expunged records to be accessible for immigration purposes.

Summary

The bill changes New Jersey law so that, if a court has ordered a record expunged, the record must be released to the individual or their representative when needed for an immigration or naturalization matter. It affects people whose records have been expunged, especially non‑citizens, and obligates law‑enforcement agencies to supply those records despite the usual secrecy. The change aims to prevent expunged records from unintentionally blocking immigration applications.
