Criminal procedure: sentencing guidelines; sentencing guidelines for delivery of controlled substance causing serious injury; provide for. Amends sec. 16d, ch. XVII of 1927 PA 175 (MCL 777.16d). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5157'25

HB 5158 updates Michigan's sentencing guidelines for individuals convicted of delivering controlled substances that cause serious injury. It specifically amends sections of the criminal procedure code (MCL 750.72 et seq.) to modify sentencing ranges for these offenses. The bill directly affects people sentenced under these provisions, adjusting how courts determine penalties for drug-related injuries. The key change refines the sentencing framework without introducing new criminal penalties or altering the definition of the offense itself.
