Bill overview
This bill would allow courts to place defendants on probation for certain major controlled substance offenses, even if they have been convicted of felonies or misdemeanors. It expands the possibility of probation for individuals convicted of offenses like drug possession, provided the court believes they are unlikely to re-offend and that it’s in the public interest. The bill also establishes a fee for probation supervision, which can be waived for indigent individuals and adjusted based on whether electronic monitoring is used.
