The bill amends the Michigan penal code by adding a new section, 89a, which establishes penalties for individuals who deliver a schedule 1 controlled substance, excluding marihuana, that results in serious injury to the recipient or any other individual. Specifically, it stipulates that such an act is classified as a felony, punishable by imprisonment for life or any term of years. The bill defines "serious injury" to include various forms of permanent impairment, disfigurement, or health issues, as well as specific conditions such as loss of limbs, serious visible disfigurement, or a comatose state lasting more than three days.

Additionally, the bill outlines what constitutes "serious impairment of a body function," providing a detailed list of conditions that fall under this definition. The new legal language emphasizes the severity of the consequences for delivering harmful substances and aims to enhance accountability for those who contribute to serious injuries through such actions. The enactment of this amendment will take effect 90 days after it is signed into law.
