LD 776: "An Act Regarding Post-judgment Motion by a Person Seeking To Satisfy the Prerequisites for Obtaining Special Restrictions on the Dissemination and Use of Criminal History Record Information for Certain Criminal Convictions"

This bill would increase the ability of young adults to request that records of certain misdemeanor crimes be sealed. Criminal records follow a person for their entire lives, making it harder for them to seek employment, housing and other opportunities. This bill would give people a better chance of moving on with their lives.
