Summary

The bill changes the Residential Landlord and Tenant Act so that a motion to seal an eviction file can be filed at any time after the appeal period ends, and parties may file more than one request in five years. It affects landlords, tenants, and the courts by expanding privacy options for eviction records. The change is intended to make it easier to remove old eviction filings from public view.
