Firearms: felons in possession: serious felonies.

Abstract

Existing law provides that any person convicted of a felony under the laws of the United States, the State of California, or any other state, and who owns, purchases, receives, or has in possession or under custody or control any firearm is guilty of a felony. Other existing law prescribes the punishment for that felony as imprisonment for a term of 16 months, or 2 or 3 years. This bill would provide that the punishment for subsequent convictions of that felony would be imprisonment for a term of 4, 5, or 6 years. By increasing the penalties for an existing crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would also make technical, nonsubstantive changes to this provision. 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.
