S 4210 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes pilot program in Paterson authorizing non-disclosure of records of certain expungements.

S4210 establishes a five-year pilot program in Paterson allowing certain expunged records to be non-disclosed for employment in municipal courts, law enforcement, and corrections agencies. The bill modifies disclosure rules so that individuals with expunged records related to dismissed charges (not resulting in conviction) or minor offenses (like disorderly persons offenses) no longer need to reveal these records during job applications. However, it does not apply to expunged records involving indictable offenses (fourth-degree crimes or higher) or to applicants for court director, administrator, or deputy administrator roles. Paterson will submit a report to the Governor and Legislature after five years to recommend whether to continue, modify, expand, or end the program.
