Abstract

(SB0741 · 103rd Legislature) Criminal procedure: sentencing guidelines; sentencing guidelines for motor vehicle sales finance violations; modify. Amends sec. 14p, ch. XVII of 1927 PA 175 (MCL 777.14p). TIE BAR WITH: SB 0739’25 Latest action (2026-06-10): Placed On Order Of Third Reading

Why this matters

Sentencing guideline amendments accompany substantive regulatory changes to the Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act, determining how violations are classified and punished under Michigan’s felony sentencing grid. For dealers, finance companies, and consumers, this affects the criminal enforcement backdrop of auto financing regulation, though the operative substantive changes reside in the tie-barred SB0739.
