AI Summary

This bill allows for the expungement of certain nonviolent class "D" felonies in Iowa, provided the defendant meets specific criteria, such as having completed their sentence more than 10 years ago, satisfying all probation/parole conditions, and having no subsequent felony or violent misdemeanor convictions. The bill excludes certain violent or sexual offenses from eligibility for expungement and requires notice to the county attorney before expungement can be granted. The expunged record becomes confidential and is removed from the state's criminal history database. The bill applies to both past and future nonviolent class "D" felony convictions in Iowa.
