Bill Summary

A bill to amend 1927 PA 175, entitled"The code of criminal procedure,"by amending section 16r of chapter XVII (MCL 777.16r), as amended by 2002 PA 279.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Code of Criminal Procedure to create a new sentencing guideline for the crime of theft of cargo, classifying it as a Property offense with a statutory maximum sentence of 10 years, placing it in the same sentencing category (Class D) as other serious property crimes like larceny involving $20,000 or more or larceny from the person. This addition to the sentencing guidelines, which are used by judges to determine appropriate punishments for felonies, aims to address the specific crime of stealing cargo, which can involve significant financial losses and disruptions to supply chains. The bill is tied to another piece of legislation, meaning it will only become law if that other bill is also enacted.
