Provides parole eligibility for certain individuals sentenced without the possibility of parole.

This bill amends Michigan's criminal sentencing laws to allow parole eligibility for individuals convicted of first-degree murder under specific conditions. It applies to those who were convicted before November 4, 1980, and were not less than 18 years old at the time of the offense. The bill also includes definitions for terms such as "arson," "corrections officer," and "major controlled substance offense." The amendment will only take effect if Senate Bill No. 90 of the 103rd Legislature is enacted into law.
