Michelle and Sana touched based on the topic:
While discussing the team made good arguments to stay on course with expungement:
No one on the team felt certain about the path to go. Wanted to discuss further.
Seemed like adding adult sealing form would be a small effort
Looking at the form, we realize that we'll need to talk with Pauline to better understand the requirements
Getting certified docket sheets during the quarantine will be very difficult and is a decent reason to prioritize sealing over expungement (not to say stopping expungement)
Seems like updating the workflow diagram will follow gaining an understanding from Pauline
[ ] Schedule meeting with Pauline to discuss adult sealing
[ ] Follow up with Sana to better understand expungement hurdles
After first contact with Pauline about adult sealing, we realized that there was more we could be doing to finalize the sealing app and move it production before moving on to adult sealing.
I've reached out to GBLS to get their thoughts on what's next for the app team
Adult sealing seems to be the direction we are headed. Pausing this effort for the moment while we work through promoting the sealing app.
Two decisions:
Goal
Decide where is best to place Clean Slate's resources going forward. Currently the decision is between continuing on with the expungement app or pivoting to sealing adult records.
Background
After talking with Pauline (5/18/20) we learned that expunging records is more difficult in practice than anticipated:
From there Pauline mentioned that sealing adult marjiuana records could be a valuable thing to work on. She also indicated that this could be accomplished the same time as the juvenile sealing (didn't capture if that was always the case or not)
