AZ HB2621

Allows individuals convicted of misdemeanors or class 4, 5, or 6 felonies to petition courts to vacate convictions and expunge records after completing probation or sentence (3 years for felonies, 2 years for misdemeanors).

Permits expungement of arrest records for individuals who complete diversion programs, have charges resolved in their favor, or are not charged within applicable time limits, provided they are arrest-free for at least one year afterward.

Requires petitions to name all relevant agencies (law enforcement, courts, prosecutors, Department of Public Safety) and include petitioner's identifying information, offense details, and fingerprints for verification.

Prohibits expungement for dangerous offenses, crimes in chapters 14 or 35.1, sex offenses with mandatory registration or sexual motivation findings, crimes with victims under 15 years old, and individuals with two or more felony convictions.

Requires courts to seal conviction or arrest records and order all entities possessing related records to destroy them upon receipt of the expungement order; allows courts to waive fines and fees but not restitution.
