This bill amends the Corrections Code of 1953 by modifying Section 33b, which outlines the eligibility for parole for individuals convicted of specific crimes. The bill specifies that, with the exception of prisoners granted parole under section 35(10), individuals convicted of certain offenses listed in the Michigan Penal Code are not eligible for parole until they have served the minimum term imposed by the court, minus any disciplinary credits. The list of offenses includes various sections of the Michigan Penal Code, such as sections related to homicide, assault, and sexual offenses.
Additionally, the bill includes several insertions that clarify the references to the Michigan Penal Code, ensuring that the language is consistent and accurate. Notably, it replaces instances of "that act" with "the Michigan penal code, 1931 PA 328" to provide clearer legal context. The enactment of this amendatory act is contingent upon the passage of Senate Bill No. 406 of the 103rd Legislature.
