Criminal procedure; modifying certain qualifications; effective date.

HB 2054 modifies Oklahoma's criminal expungement rules to expand eligibility for sealing criminal records. It adds specific qualifying categories, such as cases involving DNA exoneration, dismissed charges after deferred sentences, and nonviolent felony dismissals following successful completion of programs. The bill also establishes a key new provision: beginning three years after its effective date (subject to funding), individuals with "clean slate eligible" cases - like those with dismissed charges, misdemeanor convictions under $500 fines, or certain nonviolent felony dismissals - will automatically qualify for record sealing. This affects Oklahomans with specific conviction types, dismissed charges, or completed diversion programs who meet the time-based requirements. The changes aim to streamline record sealing for eligible individuals without requiring them to file motions.
