The measure was also referred to by its supporters as the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=California Proposition 47, Reduced Penalties for Some Crimes Initiative (2014) )〕 It redefined some nonviolent offenses as misdemeanors, rather than felonies, as they had previously been categorized.
==Effects==
The measure's effects were to convert many nonviolent offenses, such as drug and property offenses, from felonies to misdemeanors. These offenses include shoplifting, writing bad checks, and drug possession. The measure also required that money saved as a result of the measure would be spent on "school truancy and dropout prevention, victim services, mental health and drug abuse treatment, and other programs designed to keep offenders out of prison and jail."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.voterguide.sos.ca.gov/en/propositions/47/ )〕 The measure included exceptions for offenses involving more than $950 and criminals with records including violence or sex offenses.〔
The measure both affects future convictions and allows for people currently incarcerated for crimes covered by the measure to petition for re-sentencing.
