The bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure, specifically section 13m of chapter XVII, to update the classifications and descriptions of certain felonies related to controlled substances. It introduces new legal language that specifies the application of this chapter to various felonies enumerated in chapter 333 of the Michigan Compiled Laws, including the sale, distribution, or delivery of products containing ephedrine or pseudoephedrine, as well as the solicitation of these substances for the purpose of manufacturing methamphetamine. The bill also outlines the classifications and maximum penalties for various offenses, including the delivery or manufacture of imitation controlled substances and specific quantities of controlled substances such as heroin, fentanyl, and marihuana.

Additionally, the bill makes several deletions from the current law, particularly in the classifications of certain offenses related to the delivery or manufacture of controlled substances. For instance, it removes specific classifications for the delivery or manufacture of certain quantities of schedule 1 or 2 controlled substances, replacing them with updated classifications that reflect current legal standards. The bill stipulates that it will take effect 90 days after being enacted into law, and it is contingent upon the enactment of Senate Bill No. 430 of the 103rd Legislature.
