The bill establishes a new section, 943.0579, in the Florida Statutes, which outlines the process for expunging qualifying marijuana offenses. A "qualifying marijuana offense" is defined as violations related to the possession of 2 ounces or less of cannabis or possession of drug paraphernalia associated with marijuana, committed before July 1, 2025. The Department of Law Enforcement is tasked with issuing certificates of eligibility for expunction, which will not require a fee from the petitioner. The bill also specifies that petitions for expunction must include a sworn statement from the petitioner affirming their eligibility, with penalties for providing false information.

Additionally, the bill details the procedural requirements for processing expunction petitions, including the necessity of serving the petition to the appropriate state attorney and arresting agency. The court is mandated to grant relief to eligible petitioners, and the order must be certified to relevant agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Department of Law Enforcement is required to adopt rules to implement these provisions, and the act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
