This bill would restrict the amount of time in which a Motion for Appropriate Relief (MAR) could be filed after a criminal case has concluded. An MAR is a tool used to correct mistakes in criminal cases, so restricting the timeline makes it harder for those who have been wronged in criminal proceedings to receive relief. The bill would also introduce criminal penalties for exposing a child to a controlled substance, which creates new opportunities to criminalize drug use.
