How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding that a sentencer need not consider a juvenile’s youth and its attendant characteristics before imposing a non-life-without-parole sentence and affirming a sentence of 60 years of prison service before a parole opportunity
• declining to extend this rule beyond the holdings of Miller and Montgomery to aggregate life-with-the-possibility-of-parole sentences for juveniles convicted of multiple offenses
• declining to extend Miller in case where trial court imposed six consecutive life sentences plus 60 additional years on juvenile who committed multiple offenses
• upholding six consecutive life-with-parole sentences for rape by juvenile because it found Miller’s requirements applied only to de jure life-without-parole sentences
• refusing to apply Miller and Montgomery to any sentences “other than LWOP”
