PEN §653.29: (a) (1) A person currently serving a sentence for a conviction of violating former Section 653.

(a) (1) A person currently serving a sentence for a conviction of violating former Section 653.22, whether by trial or by open or negotiated plea, may petition for a recall or dismissal of sentence before the trial court that entered the judgment of conviction in the case to request resentencing or dismissal, and sealing, as applicable. (2) Upon receiving a petition under paragraph (1), the court shall presume the petitioner satisfies the criteria in paragraph (1) unless the party opposing the petition proves by clear and convincing evidence that the petitioner does not satisfy the criteria. If the petitioner satisfies the criteria in paragraph (1), the court shall grant the petition to recall the sentence or dismiss the sentence because it is legally invalid and shall seal the conviction as legally invalid. (b) (1) A person who has completed their sentence for a conviction of violating former Section 653.22, whether by trial or open or negotiated plea, may file an application before the trial court that entered the judgment of conviction in their case to have the conviction dismissed and sealed because the prior conviction is now legally invalid. (2) The court shall presume the petitioner satisfies the criteria in paragraph (1) unless the party opposing the application proves by clear and convincing evidence that the petitioner does not satisfy the criteria in paragraph (1). Once the applicant satisfies the criteria in paragraph (1), the court shall seal the conviction as legally invalid. (c) Unless requested by the applicant, no hearing is necessary to grant or deny an application filed under subdivision (b). (d) If the court that originally sentenced the petitioner is not available, the presiding judge shall designate another judge to rule on the petition or application. (e) Nothing in this section is intended to diminish or abrogate any rights or remedies otherwise available to the petitioner or applicant. (f) The Judicial Council shall promulgate and make available all necessary forms to enable the filing of the petitions and applications provided in this section.
