SF 3262 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Access to expunged conviction records of applicants for licenses and positions in the private security industry authorization

SF 3262 allows private security industry license applicants and employees to have their expunged conviction records accessed during background checks without a court order. It amends Minnesota Statutes to specifically permit this access for evaluations under sections 326.3381 (licensing standards) and 326.336 (background check requirements). This affects individuals with expunged convictions seeking work in the private security sector, as employers can now review these records for licensing decisions. The bill does not change expungement eligibility but clarifies that such records may be accessed for this specific industry background check process. It applies to expungement orders issued before or after January 1, 2015.
