Plain-language change summary

The updated version of HB 4643 changes how penalties for criminal defacement of property are calculated. Instead of treating each instance of defacement separately, the total value of all defaced properties will be considered together if the acts were part of a single course of conduct. This change could lead to harsher penalties for individuals who deface multiple properties in one incident, which aims to deter such behavior and strengthen property protection laws.
