Michigan Supreme Court

Estate of Virginia Kermath v. Independence Village of Oxford LLC

March 19, 2021

Summary

The Michigan Supreme Court granted a motion to strike, accepted the application for leave to appeal for consideration, and directed the Clerk to schedule oral argument. The order required supplemental briefing on foreseeability, the existence of a special relationship, and whether the defendants owed a common-law duty to monitor and secure the facility's side entrances and exits. The order did not resolve those merits issues.
