What’s in it

This bill relates to the expungement of a deferred judgment upon a person’s discharge from probation.9 provides that if a judgment in a criminal case has been deferred, any counts dismissed by the court, which were contained in the indictment, information, or complaint that resulted in the deferred judgment, and any other related charges that were not contained in the indictment, information, or complaint but were dismissed, shall be expunged and the expunged record is a confidential record but shall be made available by the clerk of the district court, upon request and without court order, to an agency or person granted access to the deferred judgment docket.

Read the full explanation

The bill requires the expunged record to be sealed by the court subject to the same confidentiality restrictions in current law.9 shall not be released by the division of criminal investigation of the department of public safety to any private party conducting a criminal history background check.
