Modifies provisions relating to the payment of restitution for eligibility of an expungement

Missouri's SB 692 modifies expungement eligibility by removing the requirement that individuals pay court-ordered restitution to victims before qualifying for record sealing. The bill directly affects people with eligible criminal convictions who seek to expunge arrest or conviction records in Missouri courts. Key provisions clarify that completing restitution payments is no longer a barrier to expungement (though fines and other obligations remain required), while maintaining existing waiting periods, prohibitions on new charges, and a list of ineligible crimes (such as violent felonies or sex offenses). This change allows more individuals to pursue expungement without resolving restitution obligations, streamlining access to record clearance under Missouri law.
