Question Presented (OCR Extract)
QUESTION PRESENTED The Eighth Amendment categorically bars the death penalty for juvenile offenders, Roper v. Simmons, 548 U.S. 551, 571 (2005), and life without parole for juvenile nonhomicide offenders, Graham v. Florida, 560 US. 48, 74 (2010). In Miller v. Alabama, 567 U.S. 460, 465 (2012), the Court introduced an individual proportionality determination and held that “mandatory life without parole for those under the age of 18 at the time of their crimes violates the Eighth Amendment|.]” The question presented is: Whether Graham and Miller require an individual proportionality determination before imposing any sentence on a juvenile offender convicted in adult court.
