What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a person who distributes or delivers a controlled substance

or controlled substance analog is guilty of a felony, the penalties for which vary

depending on the controlled substance or controlled substance analog. Under this

bill, the maximum term of imprisonment for distributing or delivering a controlled

substance or controlled substance analog is increased by five years if the offense is

done in the presence of a child who is no more than ten years old.

Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime,

the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a

report concerning the proposed penalty and the costs or savings that are likely to

result if the bill is enacted.
