Bill Summary

CONCERNING INCREASED ELIGIBILITY FOR PROCEDURES TO REDUCE COLLATERAL SANCTIONS EXPERIENCED BY DEFENDANTS, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.

AI Summary

This bill expands eligibility for procedures to reduce collateral sanctions experienced by defendants. Key provisions include: - Automatic sealing of arrest records with no charges filed after 1 year (or 3 years for felonies, 18 months for misdemeanors prior to 2022). - Allowing defendants with multiple convictions to petition to seal records that are not otherwise eligible for sealing, with specific eligibility timelines and criteria. - Allowing sealing of conviction records for offenses that received a full and unconditional pardon. - Requiring the state court administrator to compile a list of eligible drug convictions and automatically seal those records. - Appropriating funds to the judicial department and department of public safety to implement the act. The bill aims to reduce collateral consequences for defendants by increasing opportunities to seal criminal records, particularly for drug offenses.
