The bill amends section 11b of chapter XVII of the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure, specifically addressing various felonies related to the unauthorized disclosure of information, false information in state ID applications, counterfeiting state ID cards, and firearm-related offenses. The amendments include a detailed enumeration of specific offenses along with their corresponding classifications and maximum penalties. Notably, the bill introduces new legal language that categorizes these offenses, such as unauthorized disclosure of information from the Law Enforcement Information Network (LEIN) and various forms of false representation to obtain or misuse personal information.
Additionally, the bill specifies the penalties associated with each offense, ranging from misdemeanors to felonies with varying degrees of severity. For instance, the penalties for failing to store a firearm resulting in death are classified as a Class C felony, while selling or possessing counterfeited state ID cards carries a Class E misdemeanor penalty. The enactment of this bill is contingent upon the passage of related legislation, ensuring that these amendments take effect only if certain other bills are also enacted into law.
