SB 342 Michigan Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Law enforcement: other; disclosures by law enforcement officers act; modify definition of involuntary statement. Amend sec. 1 of 2006 PA 563 (MCL 15.391).

SB 342 amends Michigan's 2006 law on law enforcement disclosures by clarifying the definition of "involuntary statement." It specifies that a statement by a law enforcement officer is *not* considered involuntary if the officer knowingly and intentionally provided false or misleading information about a material fact. This change directly affects how courts evaluate police testimony regarding material facts, ensuring intentional falsehoods are excluded from the "involuntary statement" exception. The bill modifies Section 1 of 2006 PA 563 (MCL 15.391), with no new requirements or penalties added.
