Case Summary

On January 13, 2023, a class action lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan challenging the constitutionality of Michigan's Sex Offender Registration Act (SORA). The plaintiffs, representing a class of all individuals who are or will be subject to registration under Michigan's Sex Offenders Registration Act, alleged that the enforcement of the Act violated their constitutional rights, including under the Ex Post Facto Clause, Due Process Clause, Equal P…

On May 31, 2023, defendants filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim, arguing that the amended Sex Offender Registration Act, the new SORA, was substantively identical to the federal Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA), and federal courts had rejected Ex Post Facto claims and First Amendment claims as well as other claims on similar grounds to similarly used language within the SORNA. Additionally, defendants argued that plaintiff's due process and First Amendment arguments did not demonstrate infringement of plaintiffs' fundamental rights. Additionally, regarding plaintiffs' vagueness challenges, defendants argued that the new SORA provided sufficient notice and previous court rulings regarding the same language had stated the same. Defendants also addressed plaintiff's equal protection challenges, arguing that while the new SORA did make racial distinctions, so did the federal SORNA, and it had been upheld by federal courts. Lastly, defendants argued that plaintiff's claims were barred by the statute of limitations, as many of the harms occurred over a decade ago and since plaintiffs possessed almost identical continuing requirements under the federal SORNA, their claims were moot.

On October 2, 2023, plaintiffs filed a motion for summary judgment requesting the court to declare that the SORA was unconstitutional. They argued that the SORA violated the Ex Post Facto Clause by retroactively applying punishment and extending registration terms. It violated Due Process and Equal Protection by imposing lengthy/lifetime registration without individual risk assessment. Additionally, the SORA violated the First Amendment through compelled speech and vague requirements. Plaintiffs also argued the SORA violated Due Process by breaching plea agreements, and it violated Due Process and Equal Protection by mandating registration for non-sex offenses and treating out-of-state convictions unfairly.

On September 27 2024, the court granted granted summary judgement as to plaintiffs' (i) ex post facto claims, (ii) non-sex offense claim, (iii) non-Michigan offense claim, and (iv) First Amendment claims alleging forced admission of understanding and chilled speech rights stemming from SORA's 2021 internet-identifier reporting requirements. Additionally, the court granted summary judgment to defendants as to plaintiffs' claims regarding (i) lack of individualized review, (ii) unequal opportunity to petition, and (iii) compelled speech. Additionally, the court ruled that plaintiffs' claim regarding plea agreements was moot.

On January 10, 2025, plaintiffs filed a motion for entry of judgment, requesting the court to enter a final judgment in favor of plaintiffs. On March 26, 2025, the court ruled on plaintiffs' motion for entry of judgment, granting it in part and denying it in part. On Plaintiff's two Ex Post Facto claims, the court found that provisions of SORA 2021 violated the Ex Post Facto Clause, and granted summary judgment to plaintiffs. Additionally, plaintiffs challenged the provision of SORA that required individuals convicted of certain offenses against minors to register, arguing that procedural due process required a judicial determination that they committed a sex offense before being required to register as a sex offender. The court agreed with the plaintiffs and held that a "judicial determination must be afforded to people convicted of offenses without a sex element". The Court also enjoined the required registration for individuals with out-of-state convictions under SORA until the legislature adopted a constitutional process that afforded registrants with a judicial determination of their registration requirements. Plaintiffs also argued that there were reporting requirements under SORA 2021 that were unconstitutionally vague. The court found certain terms were unconstitutionally vague but others were not.

On March 26, 2025, a final judgment was issued in the case. The court's ruling resulted in a mixed outcome. In regards to plaintiffs' ex post facto challenges, the court granted summary judgment to the plaintiffs on Counts I and III, which contested the retroactive application of SORA 2021. This resulted in the court permanently enjoining the defendants from requiring registration under SORA 2021 or any prior version of SORA, or enforcing these versions against the individual plaintiffs and the pre-2011 ex post facto subclass. The court granted summary judgment to the defendants regarding the claims concerning individualized review, unequal opportunity to petition for removal, mandatory reporting requirements, and compelled speech issues. The court rendered the issue related to the violation of plea agreements as moot. Plaintiffs were granted summary judgment on their claims challenging the application of SORA to individuals with non-sex offenses. The court issued a mixed ruling on the plaintiffs' challenges to certain provisions of SORA 2021 as unconstitutionally vague, granting summary judgment to both plaintiffs and defendants in part. Additionally, plaintiffs were granted summary judgment on their challenge of the requirement that registrants attest that they understand their registration duties under SORA. Plaintiffs were also granted summary judgment on their challenge of the requirement to report electronic mail addresses and to report internet identifiers. Plaintiffs were granted summary judgment on their claims asserting that the process used by defendants for registering individuals with non-Michigan convictions violates the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, imposing longer or harsher registration requirements on individuals with non-Michigan convictions compared to those with Michigan convictions violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

On April 11, 2025, the defendants filed a motion asking the court to stay its final judgment with respect to Counts I, II, and XI. They stated that this was to allow Defendants to file an appeal with the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals. Defendants argued that granting the stay was necessary to reduce chaos if the final judgment was put into effect while the Sixth Circuit was considering their appeal. They reasoned that if the judgment were implemented and individuals unregistered based on the district court's ruling, it would cause significant disruption if the Sixth Circuit later reversed that decision on appeal. The case is ongoing.
