Mississippi HB85 revises the age for expunging misdemeanor convictions.
Mississippi HB85 amends Section 21-23-7 of the Mississippi Code of 1972 to revise the age for expunging misdemeanor convictions. The bill allows for the expunction of misdemeanor convictions for individuals who were first offenders and have demonstrated good conduct for two years since the last conviction. This expunction process legally treats the individual as though they had never been convicted of the misdemeanor, though it does not apply to confidential law enforcement records.
