This bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure by updating section 13k of chapter XVII to include specific felonies related to the use and treatment of embryos, fetuses, and neonates, as well as unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. Notable insertions include a detailed enumeration of felonies with their corresponding categories, classes, and maximum penalties, such as the use of a live human embryo for nontherapeutic research and unauthorized disclosure of social security numbers. Additionally, the bill specifies the requirement for individuals with HIV to inform uninfected partners of their status, with changes to the language to ensure clarity regarding the intent to infect.

Furthermore, the bill stipulates that it will not take effect unless certain related legislation, specifically Senate Bill No. ____ or House Bill No. 5201, is enacted into law. This conditional enactment underscores the interconnected nature of legislative changes regarding public health and criminal procedure in Michigan.
