Bill Summary

Amending Title 18 (Crimes and Offenses) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in criminal history record information, further providing for expungement.

AI Summary

This bill amends Pennsylvania law regarding the expungement of criminal history record information, which refers to records of arrests, charges, and convictions. Specifically, it lowers the age at which an individual can have their criminal history expunged if they are 65 years old or older and have had no arrests or prosecutions for ten years after their final release from any confinement or supervision, down from the previous requirement of 70 years old. This change aims to provide an earlier opportunity for individuals to clear their criminal records under these specific conditions.
