This bill died with 2009-2010 Regular Session. It reached “To Executive” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.
This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.
Summary
Existing law provides that any person convicted of the unlawful sale of cocaine or heroin who is eligible for and granted probation shall, as a condition of that probation, be confined in a county jail for at least 180 days, except as provided. This bill would also provide that any person convicted of selling methamphetamine who is granted probation shall be confined in a county jail for at least 120 days as a condition of probation, except as provided. By requiring confinement in a county jail as a condition of probation, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
