AI Summary

This bill authorizes a court to impose a sentence other than the mandatory minimum term of imprisonment and mandatory fine for a person convicted of drug trafficking if the court finds that the person did not engage in a continuing criminal enterprise, did not use or threaten violence or a weapon, and did not cause a death or serious bodily injury. This allows for more flexibility in sentencing for certain drug trafficking offenses.
