Dismissal of pending gun possession charges

EnactedFiled Dec 11, 2024
Sponsor: Deon Tedder (D)
Latest Action

Act No. 260

Sep 2, 2026

Summary

The bill amends the South Carolina code so the state must drop pending unlawful handgun possession charges that arose before the 2024 Constitutional Carry Act and allows one expungement for a prior conviction. It applies to individuals with such pending charges or a single earlier conviction, and the dismissal cannot be used to support civil lawsuits. The change aligns criminal records with the newer gun‑rights framework.
