This bill implements a recommendation of the Criminal Records Review Committee. The bill creates a process to automatically seal or make confidential criminal history record information related to convictions for marijuana possession and cultivation related crimes committed on or after January 1, 2001 and prior to January 30, 2017. The process requires the Department of Public Safety, Bureau of State Police, State Bureau of Identification to review monthly the criminal history record information obtained in its files to determine if the underlying convictions for certain criminal history record information qualifies for automatic sealing. If it does, it must transfer that information to the Administrative Office of the Courts, which is required to do the same with its files for the corresponding underlying convictions. Once the Administrative Office of the Courts has compiled all of the relevant information, the bill requires the Administrative Office of the Courts to submit that information to the Superior Court or District Court in the underlying criminal proceeding. That court is required to determine whether the underlying criminal conviction qualifies to have the criminal history record information related to the conviction sealed. If it does qualify, the court is required to send notice to the State Bureau of Identification to make that criminal history record information confidential. If it does not qualify, the court is required to send the order denying seal to the State Bureau of Identification to be filed with the criminal history record information for that underlying conviction. The bill provides that a person aggrieved by a finding that the person's conviction does not qualify for automatic sealing does not have a right to appeal, but the Supreme Judicial Court may make rules for the manner for taking appeal. Regardless of a finding that a person's conviction does not qualify for automatic sealing, the person is still permitted to file a motion to seal the criminal history record information for that conviction. The State may appeal a decision granting automatic sealing of an eligible criminal conviction as a matter of right.
