The bill aims to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws by adding a section to remove certain eviction records from public access. Specifically, it outlines that eviction filings and associated records must be removed from the public index and publicly accessible files seven years after their final disposition or filing, providing no subsequent filings are recorded. This act will be effective from January 1, 2027, giving individuals and their personal information protection by limiting public access to old eviction records.

Overall, the bill's passage will impact individuals involved in eviction filings by eventually removing these records from public access after seven years, safeguarding their privacy and potentially mitigating the long-term impact of past evictions.
