The state of Michigan prides itself on having some of the strongest minor in possession laws in the country. In fact, in 2004 Michigan’s minor in possession law went through several changes designed to enhance its effectiveness, including altering the definition of being “in possession of alcohol” to include blood alcohol content, giving judges the right to sentence minors who fail to properly respond to charges with jail time, and setting up a system with the Secretary of State to track first time offenders. Now, while this may all seem a little over the top to some, minor in possession laws in Michigan are no joke.
