2019 House Bill 4286 ↩

Senate Roll Call 46: Passed

To appropriate $10 million to make good on the promise made by a <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2015-HB-4054">2016 law</a> that authorized payment of $50,000 for each year of wrongful imprisonment served by a person who did not commit the crime. The bill would require the Attorney General to file reports with the legislature on the status of claims, settlements and awards under this law. Reportedly the fund created to provide this compensation currently has just $1.1 million, and the estimated amount of claims is $22 million.
