The bill amends the Code of Criminal Procedure, specifically section 10c of chapter II, to clarify the jurisdictions in which certain criminal conduct can be prosecuted. It establishes that offenses listed in subsection (2) can be prosecuted in the jurisdiction where the offense occurred, where the information used to commit the violation was illegally used, or where the victim resides. The bill also specifies that this jurisdictional authority applies to violations of the Identity Theft Protection Act and various sections of the Michigan Penal Code.

Additionally, the bill updates the legal references within the existing law by replacing "445.79c" with "445.80c" in the context of the Identity Theft Protection Act and correcting the reference to the Michigan Penal Code from "321" to "328." It further stipulates that if a person is charged with multiple violations of the Identity Theft Protection Act or related offenses that can be prosecuted in more than one jurisdiction, any of those jurisdictions may serve as a proper venue for prosecution. The enactment of this bill is contingent upon the passage of Senate Bill No. 360.
