The bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure, specifically section 41 of chapter XVII, to update the scoring criteria for offense variable 11, which pertains to criminal sexual penetration. The new language introduces specific scoring points for various scenarios, including instances of criminal sexual penetration involving a victim or a companion animal. The scoring system assigns points based on the number of penetrations, with higher points for multiple offenses, and clarifies that points should not be scored for the penetration that forms the basis of a first- or third-degree criminal sexual conduct offense.

Additionally, the bill specifies that all sexual penetrations of the victim or a companion animal by the offender related to the sentencing offense should be scored, while allowing for the possibility of scoring multiple penetrations in other offense variables. The bill also includes a provision stating that it will not take effect unless certain other bills from the 103rd Legislature are enacted into law.
