HB2173

Kansas HB2173 allows certain offenders to petition for relief from registration requirements under the Kansas offender registration act.

Kansas HB2173 amends the Kansas offender registration act to allow certain offenders to petition for relief from registration requirements. Eligible offenders must have registered for at least five years after their parole, discharge, or release, or five years from their conviction or adjudication if not confined. To qualify, the offender must not have been convicted or adjudicated of a felony within the five years before filing the petition, and their circumstances must demonstrate sufficient rehabilitation. The court may require a risk assessment, which the offender must pay for.
