Relating to automatic orders of nondisclosure of criminal history record information for certain criminal defendants.

HB 3654 proposes to automatically seal criminal records for certain nonviolent misdemeanor and felony convictions after a waiting period, without requiring individuals to file a separate petition. It applies to people who completed their sentence (including fines and supervision) for eligible offenses like nonviolent misdemeanors or certain felonies, with no prior convictions for serious crimes (e.g., violent offenses, sex crimes, or drug offenses under specific chapters). The bill would trigger automatic sealing 10 years after sentence completion for most offenses, or 15 years for second-degree felonies, removing these records from public access. This directly affects eligible individuals who meet all criteria, streamlining record clearance without court filings. The bill is currently in committee referral after its introduction.
