MI HB5324

Department of State Police must immediately send written notice by first-class mail to individuals when an order or disposition is entered into the law enforcement information network, including the person's name, entry date, prohibition on obtaining pistol or concealed weapon licenses, and right to request correction or expungement of inaccurate information.

Persons subject to qualifying orders may request the Department of State Police to amend inaccurate information or expunge entries if they are no longer subject to involuntary mental commitment, legal incapacity, personal protection orders, or firearm purchase prohibitions under release conditions.

Department of State Police has 30 days to investigate requests and grant or deny amendment or expungement; denials must specify the basis and inform applicants of appeal rights under the Administrative Procedures Act.

Persons denied amendment or expungement may request a hearing before a hearing officer appointed by the Department of State Police to determine whether information should be amended or expunged based on inaccuracy or falsity.

Department of State Police must delay sending notice for personal protection orders under MCL 600.2950 and 600.2950a until confirmation that the respondent has been served with or received notice of the order.
