Route Fifty: Pennsylvania will begin automatically sealing criminal justice records in the state for some misdemeanors and arrests under legislation Gov. Tom Wolf signed into law in Harrisburg on Thursday.
The “clean slate” bill will automatically seal records for low-level misdemeanors that resulted in a less than two year prison sentence, if the person who committed the offense has avoided trouble with the law for 10 years. It contains similar provisions for sealing records related to charges that did not lead to convictions.
