MI HB6014

Amends the Corrections Code of 1953 to create parole eligibility for individuals sentenced to life imprisonment without parole for crimes committed before age 18, in compliance with the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Miller v. Alabama (2012).

Establishes parole eligibility based on age at time of offense: individuals under 16 years old become eligible after serving 15 years; individuals 16-17 years old become eligible after serving 20 years.

Requires the parole board to consider 13 specific factors when determining parole release, including the individual's role in the offense, use of violence, prior criminal history, mental state, age, and family circumstances.

Modifies Section 34 to add exception language stating that certain life-sentenced prisoners are not eligible for parole "except as provided in section 34d," creating the new parole pathway for juvenile offenders.

Applies retroactively to individuals sentenced before June 25, 2012 to life imprisonment without parole eligibility for offenses committed while under 18 years of age.
