MS SB2411

CDL holders who commit a first-offense DUI while driving a non-commercial vehicle (one not requiring a CDL) would become eligible for nonadjudication and expunction under this bill

Current Mississippi law bars all commercial driver's license and commercial learner's permit holders from DUI diversion programs regardless of what vehicle they were operating at the time of offense

The bill amends Section 63-11-30 of the Mississippi Code to distinguish between CDL holders operating commercial vehicles versus personal vehicles when determining eligibility for alternative sentencing

Nonadjudication allows courts to withhold conviction and place defendants in supervised programs; successful completion results in no formal conviction on record

Expunction eligibility requires at least 5 years after completing all sentence terms, no test refusal, BAC below 0.16%, and no other DUI convictions or pending charges
