Criminal procedure: other; process of determining rebellion or invasion; clarify. Amends sec. 12, art. I of the state constitution.
This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to clarify when Michigan's Supreme Court must determine if rebellion or invasion justifies suspending habeas corpus. It requires the court to rule within 48 hours if the governor, attorney general, or both legislative chambers (via roll call vote) request such a determination. The amendment directly affects the Supreme Court's role in emergency civil liberties decisions, ensuring a timely judicial check on potential government actions during crises. It does not change existing habeas corpus protections but adds procedural clarity to emergency suspensions.
