AI Summary
This bill mandates that offenses for which a pardon has been granted must be expunged from the Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) reports. Specifically, it requires the Criminal History Systems Board to remove any reference to the pardoned offense from the CORI system, and to provide an amended CORI report to the recipient of the pardon upon request. Additionally, the board must provide the amended CORI report to any person or agency that may be making a decision that could be adversely affected by the dissemination of the original CORI report containing the pardoned offense information. The bill also requires the board to retroactively expunge pardoned offenses from CORI reports issued prior to the effective date of the legislation.
