records for misdemeanor reckless driving convictions.
FISCAL EFFECT:
Negligible fiscal impact.
COMMENTS:
Purpose. AB 1352 (Levine), Chapter 274, Statutes of 2013), which
was sponsored by the Judicial Coucil, modified the number of
years that various court records must be retained, with the
intent to bring the retention timelines for particular
violations in line retention requirements for similar
violations. This bill, as described above, corrects a drafting
error in the prior legislation.
