Bill overview
This bill amends Michigan’s Corrections Code to require the parole board to consider parole for individuals sentenced before 1980. It updates the composition and appointment process of the parole board, establishes new provisions regarding parole eligibility, and modifies rules for prisoners serving indeterminate sentences, particularly those convicted of drug-related offenses. Specifically, it introduces provisions for early parole eligibility for certain individuals convicted of violating the public health code related to drug offenses, based on cooperation with law enforcement and the date of the offense.
