The Michigan Supreme Court will hear oral argument on an application for leave to appeal concerning the effect of a two-year “misdemeanor” conviction.&nbsp; <a href="http://publicdocs.courts.mi.gov:81/SCT/PUBLIC/ORDERS/156283_73_01.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>People v. Washington</em></a>, Case No. 156283, concerns the question of whether a two-year misdemeanor conviction for maintaining a drug house may serve as the predicate felony conviction for the charge of possessing a firearm during commission of a felony pursuant to MCL 750.227b.&nbsp; If the Court grants the application, this case has the potential to have significant ramifications for individuals with so-called “high court misdemeanor” convictions.
