TO MAKE TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS TO TITLE 5 OF THE ARKANSAS CODE CONCERNING CRIMINAL OFFENSES.

HB 1355 makes technical corrections to Arkansas' criminal code (Title 5) without creating new laws or penalties. It removes outdated references (like a non-existent offense in child crime fines), clarifies reporting requirements for seized property (e.g., tracking firearms sales), and refines definitions for offenses like "death by delivery" and "personal use" of controlled substances. These changes primarily affect law enforcement agencies, courts, and legal proceedings by ensuring existing statutes accurately reflect current law. The bill was enacted as Act 171 on February 25, 2025, with the General Assembly confirming it only makes technical, not substantive, updates.
