Under current law prior to a person's release on probation or parole the person's probation or parole officer provides the person with a notice regarding sealing criminal records. The bill specifies what the notice must contain.
The bill provides that a pardon issued by the governor waives all collateral consequences associated with each conviction for which the person received a pardon unless the pardon limits the scope of the pardon regarding collateral consequences. If the governor grants a pardon or a request for clemency, the governor shall provide a copy of the pardon or clemency to the Colorado bureau of investigation, and the Colorado bureau of investigation shall include a note in the individual's record in the Colorado crime information center that a pardon was issued or clemency was granted.
Under current law, certain drug convictions are subject to sealing; the bill extends sealing to most other crimes.
