What Does It Do[]
Create a new section of KRS Chapter 431 to allow the expungement of criminal records when a person who is a victim of identity theft has been erroneously charged with a criminal offense as a result; enumerate requirements for the expungement of the records; establish a process for an expedited order of expungement when the court determines that a person is currently facing criminal charges as a result of identity theft; provide that expunged records be deleted or removed if held by an agency or official, including law enforcement; provide retroactive application; restrict requirements for the payment of court costs or fees for persons seeking to expunge a criminal record under this section; provide that insurance companies must remit additional or higher insurance premiums if notified that a policy holder had his or her record expunged under this section; require the Administrative Office of the Courts to promulgate administrative regulations necessary to implement the section; and amend KRS 527.040 to provide that expungement of a criminal record under this section is an exception to the crime of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
