North Carolina H86 prohibits illegal aliens from expunging criminal convictions or charges from their records.

North Carolina H86, titled "The Citizens' Expungement Clarification of 2025," amends Article 5 of Chapter 15A of the General Statutes to prohibit individuals who are not legal residents or citizens of the United States or its territories from obtaining an expunction of criminal convictions or charges. The bill requires courts to verify the legal residency or citizenship status of petitioners before allowing an expunction.
