CA AB665

Requires courts to consider military service-related conditions (sexual trauma, traumatic brain injury, PTSD, substance abuse, mental health problems) as mitigating factors when sentencing felony defendants who are current or former military members.

Allows individuals convicted before January 1, 2015 to petition for sentence recall and resentencing if military service-related conditions were not considered as a mitigating factor at their original sentencing.

Requires courts to hold a public hearing with at least 15 days' notice to prosecution, defense, and victims before determining eligibility for resentencing, with prosecution given opportunity to be heard on suitability.

Prohibits resentencing from resulting in a sentence longer than the original sentence and requires credit for time already served.

Applies retroactively to cases that were final before January 1, 2015, and does not diminish rights under Marsy's Law or other available remedies.
