Mississippi Supreme Court

De'Andre Dampier a/k/a Deandre Dampier v. State of Mississippi

December 7, 2023

Summary

The Mississippi Supreme Court affirmed the Court of Appeals, holding that Mississippi Code §99-19-101(1) does not create a statutory right to jury resentencing in a post‑conviction relief proceeding based on Miller, and that the trial court did not err in reimposing life without parole after considering the Miller factors.
