A2000

Clarifies court procedure for considering expungement applications when no objections are filed.

This bill amends the expungement laws to clarify the procedure for the timely consideration of expungement applications. It specifies that if no objections are filed by the Superintendent of State Police, the Attorney General, or the county prosecutor within 60 days, objections are deemed waived and the court shall consider the petition. The court may grant the expungement without a hearing or deny it based on its own review of the petitioner's record. The bill also mandates the development of an electronic filing system for expungement applications.
