The Attorney General of the State of Michigan is the fourth-ranking official in the U.S. state of Michigan. The officeholder is elected statewide in the November general election alongside the governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, members of the Senate and members of the House of Representatives. Since the Michigan Constitution of 1963 was adopted, the attorney general has served a term of four years. The officeholder is also limited to two terms, for a total of eight possible years of service; ten possible years of service if the officeholder serves two full terms and less than half of one term as a replacement. Inasmuch as the office of Attorney General has common law powers as the chief law enforcement officer of the State, he may exercise the powers of a peace officer and may appoint special agents having this status to assist him in enforcing his powers and carrying out his functions (AG Opinion No. 5236,10/20/1977). Michigan law, MCL 14.32, provides that "[i]t shall be the duty of the attorney general, when required, to give his opinion upon all questions of law submitted to him by the legislature, or by either branch thereof, or by the governor, auditor general, treasurer or any other state officer . . . ." Michigan's current attorney general is Democrat Dana Nessel, who was elected in November 2018, and sworn into office on January 1, 2019. (en)
密芝根州州檢察長（英語：Attorney General of the State of Michigan），或譯密芝根州律政廳長，是美國密芝根州排名第四的官員。該職位的擔任者在11月的大選中與州長、副州長、州務卿、州參議院議員及州眾議院議員一同在全州範圍內選出。 自1963年密芝根州憲法（Michigan Constitution）通過以來，州檢察長的任期為四年，且僅可連任一次，即最高可任職八年；如果出任人度過兩個完整任期，而替補任期不足一屆的一半，則可能任職十年。1950年之前，州檢察長由州長委任，後改為選舉。 由於州檢察長擁有作為州的首席執法人員（chief law enforcement officer）的普通法權力，他可以行使治安官（peace officer）的權力，並可以委任具有這種身份的特別代理人協助他行使權力及履行職責。 密芝根州法律MCL 14.32訂定：「州檢察長有責任在需要時就立法機構或其任何一個分支機構，以及州長、審計長、司庫或任何其他州官員，提交給他的所有法律問題發表意見……」 密芝根州現任州檢察長是民主黨人Dana Nessel，她於2018年11月當選，並於2019年1月1日宣誓就職。 (zh)
