Summary

Existing law prescribes certain criminal sentencing enhancements that increase the term of imprisonment for specified criminal offenses committed under circumstances including those committed using a firearm, those committed for the benefit of a criminal street gang, those committed by a repeat offender, and those determined to be hate crimes. Existing law requires a sentencing court to dismiss an enhancement if, after considering specified mitigating circumstances, the court determines that it is in the furtherance of justice to do so. This bill would exempt from this requirement an enhancement imposed for an offense determined to be a hate crime.
