AI Summary

This bill amends Oklahoma's laws related to the expungement and sealing of criminal records. It defines "expungement" to mean the sealing of criminal records, clarifies which records are eligible to be sealed, allows for the automatic sealing of certain arrest records, modifies requirements for certain expungements, and requires the submission of a report to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) on expungements that are not automatically granted. The bill also requires the OSBI to submit a report to the legislature on cases where records were not automatically expunged. Additionally, the bill provides that an offense that has been expunged shall not be treated as a prior offense for the purposes of determining eligibility for future expungements.
