What’s in it
AI summary Under current law, people cannot have certain serious misdemeanor drunk driving convictions removed from their records. This new rule would allow those records to be cleared only if the person was a minor when the offense happened and did not seriously injure anyone else.1
Read the official explanation
This bill relates to the expungement of an operating-while-intoxicated (OWI) offense that is a serious misdemeanor under certain circumstances. Current law does not allow the expungement of a conviction under Code section 321J.2. The bill provides that a conviction under Code section 321J.2 that is a serious misdemeanor shall not be expunged except for a conviction involving a defendant who was years of age or younger at the time of the offense, and the offense did not involve a serious injury, as defined in Code section 702.18, to any person other than to the defendant.
