SB 1356 - This act requires that closed criminal records shall be destroyed within six months of being closed. Additionally, arrest records shall be closed and shall be inaccessible to the general public. This act repeals provisions that such closed records shall be available to certain agencies. Finally, if destruction of the record is not feasible because of the permanent nature of the record books, such records entries shall be blacked out. This act is identical to SB 423 (2025), SB 1152 (2024), SB 447 (2023), SB 370 (2023), and SB 1230 (2022) and is similar to HB 2521 (2022). TRISTAN BENSON, JR.
