Michigan Supreme Court to hear first oral arguments of new term
Can interest and administrative fees for delinquent taxes be waived in a Michigan Tax Tribunal proceeding in which the county treasurer was not a party; was the county treasurer in a legal relationship with the township for purposes of waiving interest and fees; and does the plaintiff's complaint for relief fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tax Tribunal? These are issues before the Michigan Supreme Court in the first case of the term, which begins at 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 7, in the historic Supreme Court courtroom on the third floor of the State Capitol building.
Starting the afternoon of Tuesday, Oct. 7, and continuing on Wednesday, Oct. 8, and Thursday, Oct. 9, beginning at 9:30 a.m., the court will hear 10 other cases, including issues of funding a legislative mandate, the Public School Employees Retirement Act, the Public Employee Retirement System Investment Act (PERSIA), breach of contract, criminal offenses, the Opening Meetings Act (OMA), and governmental immunity. The court will hear the cases in its courtroom on the sixth floor of the Michigan Hall of Justice.
Oral arguments are open to the public and live-streamed. The stream is available only while the court is in session and on the bench. Streaming will begin shortly before the hearing starts; audio will be muted until the court takes the bench. Archives of oral argument are available for viewing online at http://www.michbar.org/courts/virtualcourt.cfm.
