Update
As of Dec. 18, Governor Rick Snyder signed into law the bill intended to supply a “fix” for the legislation moving the Court of Claims to the state Court of Appeals, as covered in the Grand Rapids Legal News for Dec. 6, 2013. According to the governor’s press release, “HB 5156, sponsored by state Rep. Mike Shirkey, clarifies that nothing in the Court of Claims Act, including the recent amendments transferring the court to the state Court of Appeals, eliminates any right to a jury trial, nor does it deprive a state trial court of jurisdiction to hear and determine a cause for which there is a right to a jury trial. It is now PA 205.”
