IN HB1056

Amends Indiana's resisting law enforcement statute (IC 35-44.1-3-1) to reconcile conflicts between two 2025 legislative amendments (P.L.218-2025 and P.L.238-2025)

Restructures the felony penalty tiers for resisting law enforcement: Level 6 felony for using a vehicle; Level 5 felony for using a deadly weapon, causing moderate bodily injury, or creating substantial risk of bodily injury; Level 4 felony for causing serious bodily injury or repeat vehicle-related offenses; Level 3 felony for causing death or catastrophic injury; Level 2 felony for causing death or catastrophic injury to first responders on duty

Removes the provision that prohibited charging someone under subsection (a)(3) if the law enforcement officer was a school resource officer acting in that capacity

Maintains mandatory minimum sentences for vehicle-related felony offenses: 30 days for no prior convictions, 180 days for one prior conviction, and 1 year for two or more prior convictions, which cannot be suspended

Declared an emergency, making the act effective upon passage
