This bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure by updating sections 16o and 16s of Chapter XVII, which pertain to various felonies outlined in Chapter 750 of the Michigan Compiled Laws. The amendments include the addition of specific felonies related to fraudulent activities, such as issuing or selling domestic securities, obtaining signatures with intent to defraud, and food stamp fraud, among others. Notably, the bill also deletes references to certain offenses, including the previous section 750.383a, which dealt with malicious destruction of utility equipment or infrastructure.

The bill stipulates that it will take effect 90 days after being enacted into law, but it is contingent upon the enactment of Senate Bill No. 255 from the 103rd Legislature. This legislative change aims to clarify and enhance the legal framework surrounding criminal procedures related to fraud and property crimes in Michigan, ensuring that the law remains current and effective in addressing these issues.
