What is Michigan Supreme Court Ruling on Juvenile Age about?

In People v. Woolfolk, the Michigan Supreme Court ruled that Woolfolk, who committed a homicide just hours before his 18th birthday, is considered under 18 for sentencing purposes under Miller v. Alabama. The Court determined that age should be calculated based on the anniversary of birth, affirming that he is eligible for resentencing. This decision establishes a precedent in Michigan for how age is assessed in juvenile justice cases, emphasizing the importance of birth dates over fractional days.
