Align and modernize fingerprinting and disposition reporting

Summary

The bill updates Ohio’s criminal identification system by mandating that fingerprints, photos and other identifying data be collected for a broader set of offenders, including certain felonies, repeat misdemeanors and serious juvenile cases. It also obligates lower courts to send the superintendent of the state bureau a weekly electronic summary of each case’s disposition. The changes aim to improve record‑keeping, data sharing and public safety oversight.
