Michigan Supreme Court strikes down Whitmer’s coronavirus emergency orders
(Worthy News) – Michigan’s Supreme Court on Friday struck down Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s orders to extend a coronavirus-related state of emergency past April 30 without legislative approval.
The court ruled 4-3 that Whitmer’s decision to declare a state of emergency without approval from state legislators was unconstitutional, citing the 1976 Emergency Management Act, which states that “after 28 days, the governor shall issue an executive order… declaring the state of disaster terminated” or request an extension.
The plaintiffs in the case were health care providers who could not perform nonessential medical procedures due to the extension, according to the majority opinion. [ Source: Fox News (Read More…) ]
