Health: licensing; references to licenses for certain substance use disorder services programs in the motor vehicle code; modify to include those exempt from licensure. Amends sec. 625b of 1949 PA 300 (MCL 257.625b). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5729'26

This bill amends the Michigan Vehicle Code to update time limits for court proceedings related to certain traffic violations, specifically those involving substance use disorder services. It requires courts to schedule initial court appearances within 14 days of arrest, hold pretrial conferences within 35 to 42 days, and finalize cases within 77 days, with specific exceptions for felony charges. The changes apply to individuals charged with misdemeanor traffic violations and ensure consistent timelines for moving cases through the court system. The bill does not alter existing licensing requirements for substance use disorder programs but clarifies how these programs are referenced in vehicle code sections.
