49 (4) COURT AUTHORITY.—
50 (c) The court may order the sealing of a criminal history
51 record pertaining to one arrest, adjudication of guilt, or one
52 incident of alleged criminal activity only, except the court may
53 order the sealing of a criminal history record pertaining to
54 more than one arrest or adjudication of guilt if the additional
55 arrests or adjudications of guilt directly relate to the
56 original arrest or adjudication of guilt. If the court intends
57 to order the sealing of records pertaining to such additional
58 arrests or adjudications of guilt, such intent must be specified
59 in the order. A criminal justice agency may not seal any record
60 pertaining to such additional arrests or adjudications of guilt
61 if the order to seal does not articulate the intention of the
62 court to seal a record pertaining to more than one arrest or
63 adjudication of guilt. This section does not prevent the court
64 from ordering the sealing of only a portion of a criminal
65 history record pertaining to one arrest, adjudication of guilt,
66 or one incident of alleged criminal activity.
