CRIMINAL RECORDS: Provides relative to the expungement of felony convictions. (8/1/24)

This bill modifies the rules for expunging felony criminal records in Texas, allowing individuals to clear more than one felony conviction within a ten-year period. The key change permits multiple expungements provided that specific serious offenses, such as aggravated battery or illegal use of weapons, are not included in the same ten-year window. By updating the Code of Criminal Procedure, the legislation directly affects people seeking to remove felony convictions from their public records while maintaining restrictions on certain violent or weapon-related crimes.
