If you abscond from probation in Michigan, the state can pursue extradition if you are apprehended in another state. This process typically involves issuing a warrant for your arrest and coordinating with law enforcement in the state where you are located. The extent of the extradition process may depend on the severity of your offense and the laws of the state you are in. Ultimately, Michigan has the authority to seek your return to face probation violations.

In recent years, there have been sightings of Pumas in Michigan.

It is located ten miles north of Muskegon, Michigan. Also, it is called "Michigan's Adventure," not "Michigan Adventures" (quite a pet peeve of mine). It can be found on Whitehall Road.

From Detroit, the quickest way is to take an Amtrak Thruway bus to Toledo, ride the Capitol Limited to Washington, DC and then take a Northeast Regional up to Baltimore. That will take about 28 1/2 hours.

Michigan has no official language but most of the population will speak English, or American English, as their first language.

With that GPA you should get in without much of a problem. I got a 3.4 also and got in. With an ACT score of 16, it lowers your chance allot. I had a 24 on the ACT which is a bit low for them, but still okay. One of my friends, got denied from MSU with a 3.5 and a 21 on the ACT. He took the ACT again and got a 23. He got in when he reapplied. I would go the same route as him. Retake the ACT and get at least a 23.

Yes. On average Michigan is hit by about 15 tornadoes per year. Most of these tornadoes are weak, but strong ones do occur. Three tornadoes in Michigan history were strong enough to be rated F5.

Two stories on Michigan's Nickname:

Evidence show that if wolverines ever lived in Michigan, they would have been very rare.

Some people believe that Ohioans gave Michigan the nickname around 1835 during a dispute over the Toledo strip, a piece of land along the border between Ohio and Michigan. Rumors in Ohio at the time described Michiganians as being as vicious and bloodthirsty as wolverines. This dispute became known as the Toledo War.

Another reason given for the nickname is a story that has Native Americans, during the 1830s, comparing Michigan settlers to wolverines. Some native people, according to this story, disliked the way settlers were taking the land because it made them think of how the gluttonous wolverine went after its food.

140 miles taking U.S. 23 NORTH towards ANN ARBOR (and not I-75 NORTH towards DETROIT), from Toledo, to I-75 NORTH in FLINT, MICHIGAN, and then continuing on I-75 NORTH to Saginaw. To get to the city of Saginaw, take I-675.

It is 534.29 miles according to MapQuest.

The address of the Log Cabin Society Of Michigan is: 3503 Rock Edwards Dr, Sodus, MI 49126-8700

The last time Michigan State beat Ohio State was November 6th, 1999. They won 23-7. OSU has beaten MSU 7 times in a row. The Spartans and Buckeyes did not meet in 2001, 2002, and 2009, and will not meet in 2010 due to the Big Ten's revolving schedule. Only Indiana has gone longer without beating Ohio State (1988).

Michigan was and is overly dependent on the domestic auto industry. With the near-collapse of that industry, the economy of Michigan is unable to generate enough jobs for the population. Residents move out of the state for employment opportunities.
