Bill Summary
Authorizing the expungement of a disposition under a certain provision of law if the disposition was included in a case that was disposed of by the court with a no finding designation or designated by the court as having been terminated without finding.
AI Summary
This bill expands the types of criminal records that can be expunged, or legally removed and sealed, in Maryland. Specifically, it allows for the expungement of a "disposition," which refers to the outcome of a court case, if that case was resolved with a "no finding" designation or was otherwise "terminated without finding" by the court. This means that if a case did not result in a conviction but was closed by the court without a definitive judgment, the associated records can now be expunged, providing individuals with a cleaner record in such circumstances.
