Harmelin V. Michigan: Effective Application Of Anti-Drug Legislation Or Cruel And Unusual Punishment?, Louise S. Mcalpin

Nova Law Review

The traditional American concept of criminal sentencing is that

prisons exist for rehabilitation and release as much as for incarceration.

1 However, in recent years Congress and state legislatures have

enacted a series of stringent anti-drug laws, which have largely abandoned

the concept of rehabilitating prisoners2 and instead, focused on

keeping inmates locked up for longer periods of time.'

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Note defends the thesis that the teacher-certification requirement of Michigan's compulsory attendance statute is unconstitutional as applied to people who, for sincere religious reasons, believe they must teach their children at home. Michigan courts have incorrectly applied a rational-basis test in regulating religiously motivated home schools, rather than the strict scrutiny required by the U.S. Supreme Court for cases involving both the free exercise of religion and parents' interest in directing their children's education.
