Michigan Supreme Court

Township of Fraser v. Harvey Haney

February 8, 2022

Summary

The Michigan Supreme Court held that the township’s injunctive action to enforce its zoning ordinance was not barred by the six‑year statute of limitations because the alleged zoning violations accrued each day the defendants kept hogs on the property, which occurred within the limitations period. The Court rejected the continuing‑wrongs doctrine as irrelevant and reversed the Court of Appeals judgment, reinstating the trial court’s denial of summary disposition and remanding for further proceedings.
