What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires removal from the Consolidated Court Automation Programs

(CCAP) information regarding a criminal case for which the convicted person has

been pardoned. CCAP contains information about civil and criminal cases filed in the

circuit courts in this state, including information about the parties and their

attorneys; documents filed; and deadlines, decisions, and outcomes of cases. CCAP

also contains information on family court proceedings; probate proceedings; John

Doe proceedings; reviews of certain administrative proceedings; tax warrants;

mechanics', construction, condominium, or other types of liens; civil lawsuits;

eviction proceedings; and domestic violence and other restraining orders and

injunctions.

Under the bill, the director of state courts must remove from CCAP information

relating to an acquittal, a dismissed criminal charge, and a criminal conviction if the

person was pardoned for committing the crime.
