Is suicide or attempted suicide against the law in Michigan?
It isn't against the law, no... laws against suicide are rare, because it is impossible to enforce a punishment for someone that is dead. However, it does invalidate almost all insurance policies, making it a significant financial burden to whoever has to bear the cost of clean up and burial. Suicide is a poor choice for a lot of reasons, many of which have to do with the suffering it causes others, but it is also sacrificing hope and potential. Despair is temporary. Suicide is not. Life gets better, and suicide is, as they say, a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Actually, really not a solution at all. Just another escape. It's harder to solve the problem that is motivating the suicide, but solving the problem is always a better choice, and more than worth it, even if it takes a lot of time, suffering, or embarrassment. Life is worth the sacrifice.

No, it is not illegal. It used to be, and many believe that it still is. I found out last year that the law is no longer valid. In Australia the laws for suicide and attempted suicide varied for each state. It is no longer illegal to commit suicide or attempt suicide, except for the Northern Territory where it is illegal to attempt suicide. The suicide laws were abolished in NSW in 1900, in South Australia in 1935 under section 13A of the Criminal Consolidation Act, and in Victoria in 1958 under the Victorian Crimes Act. You can find these on the internet by googling the key words (crimes or criminal act in the appropriate state or country). It's important to put the word "act" to relate it to actual written laws. Previously, when suicide was illegal there were implications on your estate once you died, but I'm not sure exactly what these implications were. The laws were abolished in the UK under the suicide act of 1961. It was abolished as a crime in the Irish Republic in 1993. In France it was back in the 1700s (sorry, I found this one on wikipedia but I can't remember the exact date. The others I found the actual law under government websites)
