Michigan Supreme Court
People v. Jade
July 31, 2026
Summary
The Michigan Supreme Court clarified that factual findings in entrapment hearings are reviewed for clear error while the ultimate legal determination of entrapment is reviewed de novo, held that the phrase “ready and willing” is not a separate element of the unlawful‑inducement prong, and vacated the Court of Appeals decision, remanding for further consideration of the escalatory nature of police conduct.
