Does the constitutional prohibition against mandatory life sentences for juvenile offenders in Miller v. Alabama apply to mandatory term-of-years sentences that are so lengthy they functionally imprison the offender until death?

QUESTIONS PRESENTED 1. Does the constitutional prohibition against mandatory life sentences for juvenile offenders in Miller v. Alabama apply to mandatory term-of-years sentences that are so lengthy they functionally imprison the offender until death? 2. Is the requirement in Miller that a sentencing court consider an offender’s juvenile nature when deciding whether to impose a life-without-parole sentence satisfied by a generic reference to the “age”? @)
