Bill Summary · SB 410

Legislative bill overview

SB 410 updates references to firearms regulations within Michigan's 1953 Corrections Code (MCL 791.233b). The bill is tied to SB 406, suggesting coordinated legislative changes to how weapons and firearms are addressed in Michigan's criminal justice statutory framework.

Why is this important

Updates to corrections code references can affect how firearms prohibitions are applied to incarcerated individuals, parolees, and those under correctional supervision. These technical updates ensure legal consistency across statutes and clarify enforcement procedures for corrections officials and courts.

Potential points of contention

  • Scope of firearms restrictions: Changes to corrections code references may expand or limit which individuals are prohibited from possessing firearms post-release
  • Tie-bar dependency: The bill's effectiveness depends on passage of SB 406; unclear what SB 406 contains or whether these coordinated changes create unintended consequences
  • Limited public detail: The bill's summary provides minimal information about specific changes, making it difficult to assess whether modifications strengthen or weaken existing protections
