LEGAL
Michigan Compiled Laws Annotated comprises a comprehensive research tool for anyone desiring instant access to the Michigan statutes and constitution. This multi-volume set is extensively annotated with legislative history — including, but not limited to, enacting and amending laws — that is relevant to specific statute sections.
Thomson Reuters editors invest thousands of hours in every annotated code to ensure that the text, index, and features are accurate and up to date. Comprehensive case annotations and notes of state and federal judicial decisions provide interpretation and application of the law, expanding your research beyond the statutes. Additional annotative features that point to other relevant law, scholarly works, and crucial material to clarify legislative intent are also provided. These research aids make every volume reliable and easy to use.
Detailed general indexes and an exclusive popular name table help you locate statutes with pinpoint accuracy. Experienced attorney-editors curate indexes utilizing a controlled vocabulary, organizing references around legal concepts and reflecting statutory language faithfully. Indexers make sure to include colloquial and jurisdiction-specific terms. Together with accurate and consistent internal cross references, you can easily locate the relevant statute without needing to page through the entire set of statutes.

Cumulative pocket part inserts and supplementary pamphlets are shipped biannually, keeping the volumes current.
