People v. Steanhousegreen2 sentences2019This Court has held that “a sentence that fulfills the principle of proportionality under Milbourn, and its progeny, constitutes a reasonable sentence under Lockridge.” Steanhouse II, 313 Mich App at 47-48 . 2017In People v Steanhouse, 313 Mich App 1, 46-47 ; 880 NW2d 297 (2015), this Court adopted the “principle of proportionality” from People v Milbourn, 435 Mich 630 ; 461 NW2d 1 (1990), as the appropriate standard for determining the reasonableness of a sentence under Lockridge, “hold[ing] that a sentence that fulfills the principle of proportionality under Milbourn, and its progeny, constitutes a reasonable sentence under Lockridge.” Steanhouse, 313 Mich App at 47 - 48. | 1 | 27 |
United States v.
