Summary

Expungement of certain misdemeanors. Allows a person convicted of certain misdemeanors who has successfully completed all terms of probation to file a petition for expungement 10 years after the conviction if he has never been convicted of any other offense. DUI, child abuse or neglect, domestic violence, sex offenses, and crimes that caused serious bodily injury do not qualify for expungement. Any conviction that is expunged will be considered a prior conviction for purposes of prosecution of any subsequent offense for which the prior conviction aggravates punishment.
