This bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure by updating section 16l of chapter XVII, which pertains to various felonies outlined in chapter 750 of the Michigan Compiled Laws. The amendments include the addition of new categories and classifications for specific offenses, such as threats to extort money, coercing a female to have an abortion against her will, and impersonating public officials or employees. Notably, the bill replaces the term "DHS" with "DHHS" when referring to impersonation of department employees, and it introduces new classifications for telecommunications fraud and residential mortgage fraud based on the value involved and prior convictions.

The bill also stipulates that for violations of certain sections, such as coercing a female to have an abortion, the offense class, offense variable level, and prior record variable level will be determined based on the underlying offense. The enactment of this bill is contingent upon the passage of House Bill No. 5036 and will take effect 90 days after it is enacted into law.
