To amend the fingerprinting law to require the destruction of the fingerprints and arrest card of a person arrested for criminal contempt for violating a domestic violence or stalking personal protection order (PPO) if charges were not brought or the accused were found not guilty. (Currently, if a person is arrested for a misdemeanor or a felony, his or her prints and arrest card must be destroyed if the person is not charged or is found not guilty.) The provisions of the bill as originally introduced were enacted by Senate Bill 721 as Public Act 203 of 2001.
