Crimes: prostitution; references to the Michigan penal code; modify in sex offenders registration act. Amends sec. 2 of 1994 PA 295 (MCL 28.722). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5016'25

HB 5026 clarifies who must register as a sex offender under Michigan's Sex Offenders Registration Act. It amends the definition of "convicted" to include specific cases: individuals under 18 who received juvenile dispositions for Tier III offenses (open to the public), out-of-state juvenile adjudications meeting age/offense criteria, and certain juvenile dispositions under Michigan's probate code. These changes ensure individuals meeting these specific conditions are subject to registration requirements. The bill directly affects people with certain past juvenile or out-of-state offenses that would classify them as Tier III offenders. It does not change registration periods or penalties, only refines the eligibility criteria for registration.
