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 with multiple felony convictions to file a motion for expungement of any or all of those felonies, provided they have not been convicted of a felony considered a crime of violence. Additionally, convictions for offenses under chapter 29 of title 12 are explicitly ineligible for expungement. Individuals may file for expungement after ten (10) years from the completion of their last sentence.

The bill also outlines the process for filing a motion for expungement, which includes notifying the Attorney General and the original police department. The court must consider specific criteria when deciding on the motion, including the absence of new criminal convictions or arrests for any felony or misdemeanor in the ten (10) years preceding the filing, the absence of pending criminal proceedings, and the demonstration of good moral character. The act is set to take effect upon passage.
