Titled: Michigan Castle Doctrine

Looking at the progress of the package of bills signed I see the following on Public Act 311 of 2006:

7/26/2006 Expected in
SJ 71
PRESENTED TO GOVERNOR 7/6/2006 @ 12:34 PM
7/26/2006 Expected in
SJ 71
APPROVED BY GOVERNOR 7/18/2006 @ 7:21 PM
7/26/2006 Expected in
SJ 71
FILED WITH SECRETARY OF STATE 7/20/2006 @ 8:58 AM
7/26/2006 Expected in
SJ 71
ASSIGNED PA 0311'06 WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT

That was for the old senate bill 1046 - Cropsey - "Crimes; other; right to self-defense and defense of others; clarify. Creates new act."

1185 has also been signed - Jelinek - "Civil procedure; civil actions; immunity from civil action for person who uses force in compliance with self-defense act; provide for."

It seems 5143 has still to be signed as is 5153 and 5548 and since these are tie-barred together there is still much to be completed.

We await more news.
