Criminal Sexual Conduct (CSC) in Michigan Third Degree

Criminal Sexual Conduct (CSC) is a set of laws in Michigan that define and penalize various forms of sexual offenses.

These laws are categorized into four degrees, with each degree reflecting the severity of the crime.

The Michigan Penal Code specifies these offenses, found under the Michigan Compiled Laws (MCL), and each degree has different elements and penalties.

Third-Degree Criminal Sexual Conduct (MCL 750.520d)

Third-degree CSC involves sexual penetration under less severe circumstances than first-degree, such as:

• The victim is between 13 and 16 years old.
• The act was achieved through force, coercion, or the victim’s inability to give consent (e.g., due to intoxication or mental incapacity).

Penalties: A person convicted of third-degree CSC faces up to 15 years in prison.
