HB 5107 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Marihuana: penalties and remedies; marihuana for personal use and possession; modify allowable amounts of. Amends secs. 5 & 15 of 2018 IL 1 (MCL 333.27955 & 333.27965). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5105'25

HB 5107 amends Michigan's marijuana laws to adjust possession and cultivation limits for adults 21+ and modify penalties for exceeding those limits. It increases personal possession from 2.5 ounces to 10 ounces at home, allows up to 12 plants for personal cultivation, and permits 2.5 ounces of concentrate. For minor excesses (e.g., possessing 2-5 ounces instead of 2.5 ounces), the bill changes penalties from criminal charges to civil fines (up to $500 for second offenses), avoiding jail time for first-time violations. The changes apply directly to Michigan residents 21+ who use or cultivate marijuana within the new limits.
