AB 2450: Sentencing: dismissal of enhancements.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified May 6, 2026

What AB 2450 does, verified May 6, 2026

<p>This bill aims to amend sentencing laws in California. It would allow courts to dismiss certain enhancements related to drug possession and trafficking, rather than requiring them to do so. Dismissal of these enhancements would be subject to the same conditions as other dismissals, including whether it is in the furtherance of justice and not prohibited by initiative statutes. The bill would make this change to specified enhancements, providing courts with more flexibility in their sentencing decisions.</p>
