If the court finds that all of the criteria provided for in § 22-24B-27 have been met and that the petitioner is not likely to offend again, then the court may, in its discretion, enter an order terminating the petitioner’s obligation to comply with the community safety zone restrictions of this state. However, if the court finds that the offender has provided false or misleading information in support of the petition, or failed to serve the petition and supporting documentation upon the parties provided for in § 22-24B-26, then the petition shall be denied. If the petition is denied, the petitioner may not file a subsequent petition for at least two years from the date the previous petition was denied. The court shall forward any order terminating the petitioner’s obligation to comply with community safety zone restrictions to the Division of Criminal Investigation.
