Record Title : Adam Walsh Act Sex Offender Reclassification Files
Revision : 0
Record Description : Sexual offender reclassification files created by the Attorney General''s Office in 2007-2008 after state legislation authorized the office to reclassify offenders from their original court ordered classifications under Megan''s law to a new tiered system under the Adam Walsh Act. Files may also contain copies of petitions to contest reclassification sent by common pleas courts on behalf of offenders, AGO motions to dismiss, complaints, summons, and related court filings. In 2010 the Ohio Supreme Court found this retroactive clause unconstitutional and ordered the AGO to reclassify the offenders under their original classification. [This record series is obsolete.]
