908the violation of s. 794.011, or s. 800.04, or s. 847.01355 was
909committed on or after July 1, 2007, the person may move the
910court that will sentence or dispose of this violation to remove
911the requirement that the person register as a sexual offender or
912sexual predator. The person must allege in the motion that he or
913she meets the criteria in subsection (1) and that removal of the
914registration requirement will not conflict with federal law. The
915state attorney must be given notice of the motion at least 21
916days before the date of sentencing or disposition of this
917violation and may present evidence in opposition to the
918requested relief or may otherwise demonstrate why the motion
919should be denied. At sentencing or disposition of this
920violation, the court shall rule on this motion and, if the court
921determines the person meets the criteria in subsection (1) and

931or s. 847.01355, the registration requirement will not apply to
932the person and the department shall remove all information about
933the person from the public registry of sexual offenders and
934sexual predators maintained by the department. However, the
935removal of this information from the public registry does not
936mean that the public is denied access to information about the
937person's criminal history or record that is otherwise available
938as a public record.
939     Section 25.  Section 943.0585, Florida Statutes, is amended
940to read:
941     943.0585  Court-ordered expunction of criminal history
942records.--The courts of this state have jurisdiction over their
943own procedures, including the maintenance, expunction, and
944correction of judicial records containing criminal history
945information to the extent such procedures are not inconsistent
946with the conditions, responsibilities, and duties established by
947this section. Any court of competent jurisdiction may order a
948criminal justice agency to expunge the criminal history record
949of a minor or an adult who complies with the requirements of
950this section. The court shall not order a criminal justice
951agency to expunge a criminal history record until the person
952seeking to expunge a criminal history record has applied for and
953received a certificate of eligibility for expunction pursuant to
954subsection (2). A criminal history record that relates to a
955violation of s. 393.135, s. 394.4593, s. 787.025, chapter 794,
956s. 796.03, s. 800.04, s. 810.14, s. 817.034, s. 825.1025, s.
957827.071, chapter 839, s. 847.0133, s. 847.0135, s. 847.01355, s.
958847.0145, s. 893.135, s. 916.1075, a violation enumerated in s.
959907.041, or any violation specified as a predicate offense for
960registration as a sexual predator pursuant to s. 775.21, without
961regard to whether that offense alone is sufficient to require
962such registration, or for registration as a sexual offender
963pursuant to s. 943.0435, may not be expunged, without regard to
964whether adjudication was withheld, if the defendant was found
965guilty of or pled guilty or nolo contendere to the offense, or
966if the defendant, as a minor, was found to have committed, or
967pled guilty or nolo contendere to committing, the offense as a
968delinquent act. The court may only order expunction of a
969criminal history record pertaining to one arrest or one incident
970of alleged criminal activity, except as provided in this
971section. The court may, at its sole discretion, order the
972expunction of a criminal history record pertaining to more than
973one arrest if the additional arrests directly relate to the
974original arrest. If the court intends to order the expunction of
975records pertaining to such additional arrests, such intent must
976be specified in the order. A criminal justice agency may not
977expunge any record pertaining to such additional arrests if the
978order to expunge does not articulate the intention of the court
979to expunge a record pertaining to more than one arrest. This
980section does not prevent the court from ordering the expunction
981of only a portion of a criminal history record pertaining to one
982arrest or one incident of alleged criminal activity.
983Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, a criminal justice
984agency may comply with laws, court orders, and official requests
985of other jurisdictions relating to expunction, correction, or
986confidential handling of criminal history records or information
987derived therefrom. This section does not confer any right to the
988expunction of any criminal history record, and any request for
989expunction of a criminal history record may be denied at the
990sole discretion of the court.
991     (1)  PETITION TO EXPUNGE A CRIMINAL HISTORY RECORD.--Each
992petition to a court to expunge a criminal history record is
993complete only when accompanied by:
994     (a)  A valid certificate of eligibility for expunction
995issued by the department pursuant to subsection (2).
996     (b)  The petitioner's sworn statement attesting that the
997petitioner:

1009former s. 901.33, or former s. 943.058, or from any jurisdiction
1010outside the state, unless expunction is sought of a criminal

1019sworn statement to the court commits a felony of the third
1020degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s.
1021775.084.

1033for a renewed certification of eligibility must be based on the
1034status of the applicant and the law in effect at the time of the
1035renewal application. The department shall issue a certificate of
1036eligibility for expunction to a person who is the subject of a
1037criminal history record if that person:

1047the charges related to the arrest or alleged criminal activity

1050than an adjudication of guilt.
1051     3.  That the criminal history record does not relate to a
1052violation of s. 393.135, s. 394.4593, s. 787.025, chapter 794,

1056907.041, or any violation specified as a predicate offense for
1057registration as a sexual predator pursuant to s. 775.21, without
1058regard to whether that offense alone is sufficient to require
1059such registration, or for registration as a sexual offender
1060pursuant to s. 943.0435, where the defendant was found guilty
1061of, or pled guilty or nolo contendere to any such offense, or
1062that the defendant, as a minor, was found to have committed, or

1082criminal history record under this section, former s. 893.14,
1083former s. 901.33, or former s. 943.058, unless expunction is
1084sought of a criminal history record previously sealed for 10
1085years pursuant to paragraph (h) and the record is otherwise
1086eligible for expunction.
1087     (g)  Is no longer under court supervision applicable to the

1093adjudication was withheld or because all charges related to the

1095expunge pertains were not dismissed prior to trial, without
1096regard to whether the outcome of the trial was other than an
1097adjudication of guilt. The requirement for the record to have
1098previously been sealed for a minimum of 10 years does not apply
1099when a plea was not entered or all charges related to the arrest

1101pertains were dismissed prior to trial.
1102     (3)  PROCESSING OF A PETITION OR ORDER TO EXPUNGE.--
1103     (a)  In judicial proceedings under this section, a copy of
1104the completed petition to expunge shall be served upon the
1105appropriate state attorney or the statewide prosecutor and upon
1106the arresting agency; however, it is not necessary to make any
1107agency other than the state a party. The appropriate state
1108attorney or the statewide prosecutor and the arresting agency
1109may respond to the court regarding the completed petition to
1110expunge.
1111     (b)  If relief is granted by the court, the clerk of the
1112court shall certify copies of the order to the appropriate state
1113attorney or the statewide prosecutor and the arresting agency.
1114The arresting agency is responsible for forwarding the order to
1115any other agency to which the arresting agency disseminated the
1116criminal history record information to which the order pertains.
1117The department shall forward the order to expunge to the Federal
1118Bureau of Investigation. The clerk of the court shall certify a
1119copy of the order to any other agency which the records of the
1120court reflect has received the criminal history record from the
1121court.
1122     (c)  For an order to expunge entered by a court prior to
1123July 1, 1992, the department shall notify the appropriate state
1124attorney or statewide prosecutor of an order to expunge which is
1125contrary to law because the person who is the subject of the
1126record has previously been convicted of a crime or comparable
1127ordinance violation or has had a prior criminal history record
1128sealed or expunged. Upon receipt of such notice, the appropriate
1129state attorney or statewide prosecutor shall take action, within

1137the department must notify the issuing court, the appropriate
1138state attorney or statewide prosecutor, the petitioner or the
1139petitioner's attorney, and the arresting agency of the reason
1140for noncompliance. The appropriate state attorney or statewide
1141prosecutor shall take action within 60 days to correct the
1142record and petition the court to void the order. No cause of
1143action, including contempt of court, shall arise against any
1144criminal justice agency for failure to comply with an order to
1145expunge when the petitioner for such order failed to obtain the
1146certificate of eligibility as required by this section or such
1147order does not otherwise comply with the requirements of this
1148section.

1198     (c)  Information relating to the existence of an expunged
1199criminal history record which is provided in accordance with
1200paragraph (a) is confidential and exempt from the provisions of
1201s. 119.07(1) and s. 24(a), Art. I of the State Constitution,

1204forth in subparagraphs (a)1., 4., 5., 6., and 7. for their
1205respective licensing, access authorization, and employment
1206purposes, and to criminal justice agencies for their respective

1218     (5)  STATUTORY REFERENCES.--Any reference to any other
1219chapter, section, or subdivision of the Florida Statutes in this
1220section constitutes a general reference under the doctrine of
1221incorporation by reference.
1222     Section 26.  Section 943.059, Florida Statutes, is amended
1223to read:
1224     943.059  Court-ordered sealing of criminal history
1225records.--The courts of this state shall continue to have
1226jurisdiction over their own procedures, including the
1227maintenance, sealing, and correction of judicial records
1228containing criminal history information to the extent such
1229procedures are not inconsistent with the conditions,
1230responsibilities, and duties established by this section. Any
1231court of competent jurisdiction may order a criminal justice
1232agency to seal the criminal history record of a minor or an
1233adult who complies with the requirements of this section. The
1234court shall not order a criminal justice agency to seal a
1235criminal history record until the person seeking to seal a
1236criminal history record has applied for and received a
1237certificate of eligibility for sealing pursuant to subsection
1238(2). A criminal history record that relates to a violation of s.
1239393.135, s. 394.4593, s. 787.025, chapter 794, s. 796.03, s.
1240800.04, s. 810.14, s. 817.034, s. 825.1025, s. 827.071, chapter
1241839, s. 847.0133, s. 847.0135, s. 847.01355, s. 847.0145, s.
1242893.135, s. 916.1075, a violation enumerated in s. 907.041, or
1243any violation specified as a predicate offense for registration
1244as a sexual predator pursuant to s. 775.21, without regard to
1245whether that offense alone is sufficient to require such
1246registration, or for registration as a sexual offender pursuant
1247to s. 943.0435, may not be sealed, without regard to whether
1248adjudication was withheld, if the defendant was found guilty of
1249or pled guilty or nolo contendere to the offense, or if the
1250defendant, as a minor, was found to have committed or pled
1251guilty or nolo contendere to committing the offense as a
1252delinquent act. The court may only order sealing of a criminal
1253history record pertaining to one arrest or one incident of
1254alleged criminal activity, except as provided in this section.
1255The court may, at its sole discretion, order the sealing of a
1256criminal history record pertaining to more than one arrest if
1257the additional arrests directly relate to the original arrest.
1258If the court intends to order the sealing of records pertaining
1259to such additional arrests, such intent must be specified in the
1260order. A criminal justice agency may not seal any record
1261pertaining to such additional arrests if the order to seal does
1262not articulate the intention of the court to seal records
1263pertaining to more than one arrest. This section does not
1264prevent the court from ordering the sealing of only a portion of
1265a criminal history record pertaining to one arrest or one
1266incident of alleged criminal activity. Notwithstanding any law
1267to the contrary, a criminal justice agency may comply with laws,
1268court orders, and official requests of other jurisdictions
1269relating to sealing, correction, or confidential handling of
1270criminal history records or information derived therefrom. This
1271section does not confer any right to the sealing of any criminal
1272history record, and any request for sealing a criminal history
1273record may be denied at the sole discretion of the court.
1274     (1)  PETITION TO SEAL A CRIMINAL HISTORY RECORD.--Each
1275petition to a court to seal a criminal history record is

1311department. After that time, the petitioner must reapply to the
1312department for a new certificate of eligibility. Eligibility for

1384such order does not comply with the requirements of this
1385section.
1386     (e)  An order sealing a criminal history record pursuant to
