A bill for an act relating to mandatory minimum sentences relating to the control, possession, receipt, or transportation of a firearm or offensive weapon by a felon and providing penalties.

SF 105 imposes mandatory minimum prison sentences for individuals convicted of felonies (or adjudicated delinquent for felony-level conduct) who possess, receive, transport, or control a firearm or offensive weapon. For a first offense, it mandates a minimum two-year prison term for a class D felony; second offenses require a minimum four years; third offenses become class C felonies with a seven-year minimum; and fourth or subsequent offenses require a ten-year minimum. The bill requires courts to sentence offenders to these minimum terms without the option to defer sentencing or suspend the prison time. This directly affects convicted felons who handle firearms or weapons, increasing penalties for repeat offenses.
