Michigan Compiled Laws

Michigan Compiled Laws

The Michigan Compiled Laws (MCL) are the official codification of statutes for the state of Michigan.[1]

Versions and history

An unannotated edition of the MCL is published by the state of Michigan in print and online.[2]

Unofficial, annotated versions are published by both Thomson West and LexisNexis. The Thomson West publication is Michigan Compiled Laws Annotated (MCLA); the LexisNexis version is the Michigan Compiled Laws Service (MCLS).

Until the year 2000, an alternate codification known as the Michigan Statutes Annotated (MSA), which differed from the MCL in both its organization and numbering system, was also in use. Until the discontinuation of the MSA by LexisNexis, Michigan Court Rules required citation to both the MCL and MSA in all court filings.
