The bill amends existing laws regarding the expungement of criminal records, specifically focusing on the eligibility criteria for individuals seeking to have their records cleared. It allows individuals who have been convicted of more than one felony, and who have not been convicted of a felony considered a crime of violence, to file a motion for the expungement of any or all of those felony convictions in the court where the convictions occurred. However, multiple convictions for offenses under chapter 29 of title 12 are not eligible for expungement.

Individuals may file a motion for expungement after ten years from the completion of their last sentence. The bill also outlines the process for filing a motion for expungement, which includes providing notice to the Attorney General and the original police department. The court must consider specific criteria when granting expungement, including that the petitioner has not been convicted or arrested for any felony or misdemeanor in the ten years preceding the filing of the motion, that there are no pending criminal proceedings against the person, and that the individual has exhibited good moral character. The act will take effect upon passage.
