AN ACT REQUIRING THAT CERTAIN EVICTION RECORDS BE SEALED.
SB 997 requires courts to seal certain eviction records, specifically those resulting from non-payment of rent. It directly affects tenants who faced eviction for this reason, helping to limit the long-term impact of such records on their housing opportunities. The bill amends Chapter 832 of the general statutes to establish this sealing requirement. It does not apply to all eviction records, focusing only on specified cases as defined by the legislation.
