AI Summary

This bill amends Section 27A of Chapter 221 of the General Laws in Massachusetts. It allows the Supreme Judicial Court to make exceptions to the 10-year retention requirement for certain types of records, including those related to non-criminal offenses such as motor vehicle infractions, parking violations, littering, bicycle and pedestrian laws, municipal dog control, and non-criminal municipal ordinance violations. This provides the court with more flexibility in managing the retention and disposal of these types of legal records.
