People v. Ford, 687 N.W.2d 119 (Mich. Ct. App. 2004). · cites it 2× “62 (class A grid) and MCL 777.64 (class C grid). This disparate sentencing treatment supports the conclusion that the Legislature's primary focus in the bank robbery statute was the type of property targeted by the offender rather than that the offense be committed by assaulting…”
People v. Garza, 670 N.W.2d 662 (Mich. 2003). · cites it 2× “MCL 777.64. 2 The defendant applied to the Court of Appeals, which denied leave to appeal.”
People v. Cline, 741 N.W.2d 563 (Mich. Ct. App. 2007). “62; MCL 777.64. With respect to OV 7 (aggravated physical abuse), the statute only provides for two scores: 50 and zero points.”
People v. Mcchester, 873 N.W.2d 646 (Mich. Ct. App. 2015). “If the correct score for OV 4 is zero instead of 10 points, it would result in altering the applicable minimum sentence range from 50 to 125 months to 43 to 107 months, thereby requiring reversal.”
People v. McCuller, 715 N.W.2d 798 (Mich. 2006). · cites it 2× “MCL 777.64. The sentences of class B felons having zero PRV points fall in an intermediate sanction cell.”

People v. Jackson, 805 N.W.2d 463 (Mich. Ct. App. 2011). “If those 5 points are subtracted from the 15-point OV total, the remaining 10 points assigned to OV 13 are sufficient to maintain the OV level at II, MCL 777.64, and, therefore, the point reduction would not trigger a need to rescore the guidelines.”
