Now vs if chaptered

Now: MH-record expungement service is narrower. If chaptered: AG, prosecutor, and local chiefs would get notice before a NICS-relief hearing.

Defender utility

Use this print on restoration / mental-health NICS-relief calendars as a pending extra-service overlay. Today's expungement petition under C.30:4-80.9 does not require this expanded LE service list. Extra notice can draw opposition to restoration; it is not a new possessory charge. Not a California charge.
