Overview
This bill establishes a pilot program in Paterson, New Jersey, to examine whether certain expunged records should be kept confidential when applying for jobs in the city’s court system, law enforcement, or corrections agencies. The program would initially limit disclosure requirements to convictions for indictable offenses (serious crimes) and would run for five years, with a final report assessing its effectiveness. It aims to help individuals with past minor offenses overcome employment barriers.
