M-144 was the designation assigned to two former state trunkline highways in the US state of Michigan. The original version of M-144 existed as a 0.388-mile-long (0.624 km) spur connecting the Michigan State Police headquarters in East Lansing to Michigan Avenue, which was signed M-39 at the time. It was designated by 1937 and decommissioned in 1939, after which time the designation was shifted to the second version of M-144 further north in Roscommon and Oscoda counties.
