HCA Continues claim of appeal

FLTF to File Response Brief
The Claim of Appeal process in the Michigan Court of Appeals continues with Heron Cove Association's (HCA) filing of its appellate brief today. 

Four Lakes Task Force (FLTF) will review HCA's brief and file a response by September 19. HCA will then have an opportunity to file a reply to our response within seven days.

Under Michigan law, a litigant has the right to request a higher court to review the errors of a lower court. On July 12th, HCA filed a request asking the Michigan Court of Appeals to review the decision of Midland Circuit Court Judge Beale. HCA took the full allotted time to file its motion of appeal. FLTF continues to maintain that Judge Beale got it right and there are no errors that warrant a reversal of his decision.
