An Act To Amend Title 11 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Expungements. [HB-145]
This Bill makes the statutory scheme for expungement of adult criminal offenses more comprehensive in three areas. First, it applies the existing expungement rules to violations of county and municipal codes, ordinances, and regulations. By doing so, expungements of such violations will be simplified and require less Superior Court resources. Second, it applies the existing rules for the First Offenders Controlled Substance Diversion Program to court-supervised drug diversion programs, which is the means by which most minor drug offenders are diverted.

An Act To Amend Title 24 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Nursing. [HB-155]
This bill creates the option of renewing a nursing license late, up to sixty days past the renewal period consistent with most regulated professions. Currently, nurses who attempt to renew after their renewal date must apply for reinstatement which delays the process due to the criminal background check requirement. This bill eliminates the delay in the renewal process and potential interruption to patient care.
