Senate Bill 462 amends the Code of Criminal Procedure to revise the conditions that must be met for a person who has been arrested for commission of a felony or misdemeanor and subsequently released to be entitled to expunction of arrest records and files and to prohibit the expunction of records relating to certain arrests and absconders. The bill requires a court to provide in its expunction order that the applicable law enforcement agency and prosecuting attorney may retain the arrest records and files of certain persons who become entitled to expunction of records based on the expiration of certain established waiting periods.
