Michigan Stalking Penalties

In the majority of cases, stalking is charged as a misdemeanor, which carries maximum penalties of up to one year in prison and fines up to $1,000. However, there are aggravating circumstances that can result in harsher penalties. For example, stalking a minor can result in felony charges. If convicted, you could be facing a sentence of five years in prison and up to $10,000 in fines.

Stalking and Restraining Orders in Michigan

Accusations of stalking often result in a restraining order being levied against the accused. It is important to follow the terms of the restraining order at all times, which often includes staying away from the accuser's home and his or her place of employment. If the terms of the restraining order are violated twice, it can result in charges of felony stalking punishable by four years in prison.
