Summary

The bill creates a statewide automated process that will automatically make certain criminal, disorderly‑person, petty‑disorderly‑person and municipal violation records inaccessible to the public without a court petition. It also amends the existing petition‑based clean‑slate provisions, clarifying eligibility, time limits, and how unpaid court‑ordered financial assessments are handled. The changes affect anyone with qualifying convictions who seeks to have those records cleared.
