AI-generated summary, not yet reviewed by Better Utah staff. Please consult the bill text.

Utah law currently requires courts to automatically erase, or "expunge," eviction records from public view once a case has been dismissed and no appeal is pending, but only after three years have passed from the date the eviction was filed. This bill would shorten that waiting period to one year and would start the clock from the date the case was dismissed rather than the date it was originally filed, meaning eligible eviction records could be cleared from public view sooner than under current law.
