This bill requires elected county officers in Michigan to update their public disclosure forms within three business days if they are convicted of a felony. The law defines a felony conviction as a court judgment regardless of whether sentencing has occurred or if an appeal is pending. The measure does not take effect unless it is passed together with a companion bill that would also require the county clerk to make these updated disclosures available to the public.
