What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a court may order that a record be expunged of certain

offenses that a person committed before the age of 25. Current law specifies that the

expungement order must be made only at sentencing and then the record is

expunged when the person completes his or her sentence. This bill eliminates, for

most offenses, the requirement that the sentencing court make the expungement

order and requires instead that such a person may petition the court for

expungement no sooner than one year after completing his or her sentence. Under

this bill, the fee for filing the petition is $100.
