SB 18-072

signed

Record Sealing Menacing And Third Degree Assault

Plain-English Summary

AI-generated

Senate Bill 18-072 allows people who were convicted of misdemeanor menacing or third-degree assault (but not for domestic violence) to ask the court to seal their conviction records. This means that once approved, these past convictions would be hidden from public view and treated as if they never happened when it comes to background checks. The bill has been signed into law, so people can now start petitioning courts to have certain misdemeanor convictions sealed.

Official Summary

The bill allows a person who was convicted of misdemeanor menacing or third degree assault, if the conviction did not involve domestic violence, to petition a court to have that conviction sealed. (Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.) , Read More
