Introduced Text

Expands expunction eligibility for victims of human trafficking in Michigan.

This bill amends Michigan's expunction law to allow individuals convicted of certain crimes to petition for their convictions to be set aside if they were victims of human trafficking. The bill specifies that a person may not have more than two convictions for assaultive crimes set aside in their lifetime and only one felony conviction for the same offense if the offense is punishable by more than 10 years imprisonment. Convictions for human trafficking violations, domestic violence, and other specified crimes may be set aside if the individual was a victim of human trafficking.
