Kempis Songster is serving a life sentence for a crime he committed as a juvenile. Songster appealed his sentence in light of the Supreme Court's ruling in Miller v. Alabama. The Miller case prohibited the imposition of mandatory life sentences without the possibility of parole for juveniles. In response to Songster's appeal, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals remanded the case for reconsideration under the principles established in Miller.

It is important to note that the Third Circuit Court did not explicitly determine the retroactivity of Miller in relation to Songster's case. This issue remains under consideration. The court's remand order directs the lower court to re-examine Songster's sentence in light of the Miller decision, taking into account the factors relevant to sentencing juveniles, such as the individual's age, maturity, and potential for rehabilitation. The outcome of this re-sentencing process will determine whether Songster's life sentence will be modified in accordance with the principles established in Miller v. Alabama.

Kempis Songster, who was sentenced to life in prison for a crime he committed as a juvenile, is appealing his case. His appeal is based on a recent Supreme Court decision in the case of Miller v. Alabama. This decision ruled that it is unconstitutional to sentence juveniles to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

The Third Circuit Court of Appeals has ordered that Songster's case be reconsidered in light of the Miller decision. However, the court did not decide whether the Miller decision should be applied retroactively, meaning that it could still apply to cases like Songster's where the sentence was imposed before the Miller decision was made.

Songster's case is now being reviewed to determine whether the Miller decision should be applied retroactively and whether Songster should be eligible for a new sentencing hearing where the possibility of parole would be considered.
