Criminal procedure: sentencing guidelines; sentencing guidelines for crime of sodomy between consenting adults; eliminate. Amends sec. 9, ch. VI & sec. 16i, ch. XVII of 1927 PA 175 (MCL 766.9 & 777.16i).

HB 4433 removes sodomy between consenting adults from the list of crimes that allow judges to close preliminary court hearings to the public. This change means that cases involving consensual adult sodomy will no longer be eligible for closed-door proceedings, ensuring they remain open to public observation like other criminal cases. The bill applies specifically to the state's Code of Criminal Procedure and affects how magistrates handle pre-trial hearings for this specific offense.
