Bill > AB1210

Introduced Session

Current law classifies felonies as Class A through I and provides a maximum period of imprisonment for each classification. The period of imprisonment for felonies committed on or after December 31, 1999, consists of a term of confinement in prison followed by a term of extended supervision in the community. Current law provides maximum periods for each of those terms. The maximum terms are as follows: Felony Maximum Classification period of total sentence of imprisonment Class A Life sentence Class B 60 years Class C 40 years Class D 25 years Class E 15 years Class F 12 years and 6 months Class G 10 years Class H 6 years Class I 3 years and 6 months This bill changes the maximum period of imprisonment for felonies that are classified as A through H and changes the maximum terms of confinement and extended supervision accordingly. The changes first apply to crimes that are committed on the day the bill becomes law. The changed terms are as follows: Felony Maximum Classification period of total sentence of imprisonment Class A 40 years Class B 30 years Class C 20 years Class D 15 years Class E 10 years Class F 8 years Class G 6 years Class H 4 years The bill makes other changes in accordance with the reduced maximum periods, such as reducing mandatory minimum periods of confinement in prison. Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime, the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a report. For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
