When This Crap Occurred....
LANSING, Mich. (AP) The Michigan Supreme Court on Monday rejected Gov. Gretchen Whitmers request to delay by 28 days the effect of its decision striking down a law she had used to keep intact sweeping orders designed to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
Justices voted 6-1 against halting the precedential effect of its Oct. 2 opinion until Oct. 30. They also reaffirmed their initial 4-3 ruling that declared the 1945 emergency powers law unconstitutional, this time in a lawsuit brought by the Republican-led Legislature.
Executive orders issued under the law are of no continuing legal effect. This order is effective upon entry, the court wrote.
