A. The department shall file an application for a license and shall maintain
suitable indexes containing, in alphabetical order:
1. Each application denied, with a note on each application of the reason for the
denial.
2. Each application granted.
3. Except as provided in subsection B of this section, the name of each licensee
whose license has been suspended or revoked by the department, with a note after each
name of the reason for the action.
B. The director shall expunge from the public records maintained by the department
a note of a suspension or revocation made pursuant to section 28-1385 if, after the
suspension or revocation period, the licensee submits a certified copy of the court
record indicating a dismissal or finding of not guilty of the violation on which the
suspension or revocation is based. The director shall not expunge the record or shall
rescind the expungement of the record if the licensee operates a commercial motor vehicle
without the proper class of commercial driver license, holds a commercial driver license
or is convicted of or found responsible for a violation of chapter 3, 4 or 5 of this

restricted pursuant to section 28-1385 during the suspension or revocation period.
C. The department shall file all abstracts of court records of convictions and
judgments it receives under the laws of this state and shall maintain convenient records
of the abstracts or make suitable notations on the abstracts in order that an individual
record of each licensee showing the convictions and judgments of the licensee and the
traffic accidents in which the licensee has been involved is readily ascertainable and
available for the consideration of the department on an application for renewal of a
license and at other suitable times.
D. The department shall maintain the records pursuant to this section for five
years after the application, suspension, revocation or abstract of a court record of
conviction or judgment has become inactive.
