This bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure by updating Section 13m of Chapter XVII, which pertains to the classification of certain felonies related to controlled substances. The bill introduces new legal language that specifies the application of this chapter to various felonies, particularly those involving the sale, distribution, or delivery of products containing ephedrine or pseudoephedrine, as well as the solicitation of these substances for methamphetamine production. It also includes detailed classifications and maximum penalties for various offenses related to controlled substances, including methamphetamine and marihuana.

Additionally, the bill removes specific classifications and penalties for the delivery or manufacture of certain quantities of controlled substances, such as schedule 1 or 2 drugs, and replaces them with updated classifications that reflect current legal standards. The amendments aim to streamline the legal framework surrounding drug offenses and ensure that penalties are appropriately aligned with the severity of the crimes. The bill is set to take effect 90 days after being enacted into law, contingent upon the enactment of Senate Bill No. 460.
