Penal Code Section 1170.18 Amended to Extend Proposition 47 Petition Deadline to 2022.

In November 2014, California voters enacted Proposition 47, an initiative that reduced certain felony offenses to misdemeanors and provided a process whereby people previously convicted of such felonies could return to court and petition to have their felony convictions reduced to misdemeanors, provided they did so within three years (making November 4, 2017, the cutoff).

Due to the passage of AB2765 on September 28, 2016, the cutoff is now extended until November 4, 2022.
