Summary
Amends the Code of Civil Procedure. Adds provisions to allow relief at any time from a judgment that is a conviction in which the arresting charge was prostitution or first offender felony prostitution under the Criminal Code of 1961 or a similar local ordinance and the defendant's participation in the offense was a result of having been a victim of sex trafficking or trafficking in persons. Provides that a motion seeking this relief must be made with due diligence, after the defendant has ceased to be a victim of the trafficking or has sought victim services, subject to reasonable concerns for the safety of the defendant and others. Provides that official documentation, which is not required to obtain the relief, of the defendant's status as a victim of sex trafficking from a federal, state, or local government agency creates a presumption that the defendant's participation in the offense was a result of having been a victim of sex trafficking or trafficking in persons.
