A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT to increase the criminal penalty for certain violations of the controlled substances act.
The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:
SECTION 1. G.S. 90‑108(b) reads as rewritten:
"(b) Any person who violates this section shall be
guilty of a Class 1 misdemeanor. Provided, that if the criminal pleading
alleges that the violation was committed intentionally, and upon trial it is
specifically found that the violation was committed intentionally, such
violations shall be a Class I Class G felony. A person who
violates subdivision (7) of subsection (a) of this section and also fortifies
the structure, with the intent to impede law enforcement entry, (by barricading
windows and doors) shall be punished as a Class I felon."
SECTION 2. This act becomes effective December 1, 2013, and applies to offenses committed on or after that date.
