New York will automatically seal old criminal records under law signed by Gov. Kathy Hochul
- New Yorkers with criminal records who complete their sentences will have their records automatically sealed under a new "clean slate" law signed by Gov. Kathy Hochul.
- The legislation automatically seals most criminal records three years after serving time or parole for a misdemeanor and eight years for felony convictions, with exceptions for sex crimes and certain felonies.
- The law aims to remove barriers to housing and jobs for millions of New Yorkers with criminal records, who face difficulties accessing secure employment and housing even after completing their sentences.
