This bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure by updating section 16d of chapter XVII, which pertains to various felonies outlined in chapter 750 of the Michigan Compiled Laws. The amendments include the addition of new classifications and maximum penalties for specific offenses, particularly those related to domestic violence, assault on utility workers, and crimes against pregnant individuals. Notably, the bill introduces new categories for offenses such as "Delivery of controlled substance causing serious injury" and "Assault against a pregnant individual causing miscarriage, stillbirth, or death to embryo or fetus," along with their corresponding classifications and maximum penalties.

Additionally, the bill specifies that it will take effect 90 days after being enacted into law, but it is contingent upon the enactment of related legislation, specifically Senate Bill No. ____ or House Bill No. 5157. The changes aim to enhance the legal framework surrounding serious crimes, particularly those that affect vulnerable populations, and to ensure that penalties reflect the severity of these offenses.
