Bill Summary

A bill to amend 1927 PA 175, entitled"The code of criminal procedure,"by amending section 12 of chapter IX and sections 11b and 16m of chapter XVII (MCL 769.12, 777.11b, and 777.16m), section 12 of chapter IX as amended by 2012 PA 319, section 11b of chapter XVII as amended by 2023 PA 22, and section 16m of chapter XVII as amended by 2023 PA 200.

AI Summary

This bill updates several sections of Michigan's criminal code related to sentencing guidelines and references to firearms-related offenses. Specifically, the bill makes technical changes to Chapter IX and Chapter XVII of the criminal procedure code, focusing on modifications to how repeat offenders are sentenced and updating references to various firearm and weapons-related offenses. Key changes include replacing the word "shall" with "must" in sentencing language, removing references to certain outdated weapon-related statutes (such as those related to carrying concealed weapons), and updating the categorization of specific criminal offenses. The bill also includes a tie bar provision, meaning it will only take effect if Senate Bill No. 406 is also enacted into law. The modifications appear to be mostly technical in nature, aimed at cleaning up and modernizing language in the criminal code while maintaining the overall intent of existing sentencing guidelines and weapon-related offense classifications.
