Minimum Sentencing Guidelines

The DOJ has minimum sentencing guidelines for various crimes. Like possession of Marijuana = minimum x years. Second degree murder = minimum y years.

Do Catholics have the same with Confession? Is there a minimum number of Hail Mary's and Our Fathers you have to do when you fuck up? And if so, how do they keep it up to date for new crimes? I mean I'm sure at some point in Church history there was a book somewhere that was like "using the lord's name in vain = 3 Our Fathers + 2 Hail Mary's" but what's the protocol for Nigerian email scams? Is it the same as other scams? Or is there an additional sentence for misuse of computers? And what happens if you're a gay Catholic who gets married? Is there a minimum Catholic sentence for that?
