Bill summary
Senate amendment to the 3rd edition makes the following changes.
Adds a section to the act that extends the expiration of Section 1 of SL 2022-47 from August 1, 2023, to July 1, 2024. Section 1 prohibits dismissed charges and not guilty verdicts from being expunged by operation of law and requires the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) to cease all procedures related to automatic expunction of dismissed charges, not guilty verdicts, and findings of not responsible. Also requires AOC to keep records of any dismissed charges, not guilty verdicts, and findings of not responsible that, except for this provision, would have been automatically expunged in a way that allows those cases to be automatically expunged when this section expires.
