What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

This bill requires certain information to be removed from the Consolidated Court Automation Programs (CCAP).

Under current law, 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.

Read the full summary

The information on CCAP is available for free on an Internet site. CCAP allows a user to search for all civil and criminal cases in which a person or entity, who is the subject of the search, has been a party.

Under this bill, the director of state courts must remove from CCAP's Internet site all information regarding a civil case if all money judgments entered against a party in the case are satisfied in full, and seven years have passed since the date on which the judgment was satisfied in full.
