I went the rounds with Android tablets, but eventually upgraded to a Surface Pro - I'm extremely happy with it, since it's a fully fledged PC with all of the touch/pen/tablet features.
That's the biggest take that I had from it. That and there's a case from the Court of Appeals last week that's actually going to get published and also talked about the covenant of good faith and fair dealing (which finally clears up the no covenant of good faith and fair dealing except there really is one cases).
He's a business court judge, so it would get assigned to him normally.
Edit: The case is a business court case (which is denoted by the "cb" at the end of the case number, contract cases are "ck", real estate are "ch", etc). Business courts were established as specialized dockets for cases involving businesses (and non profits, and their employees and officers). Only a couple judges are assigned to the business court, by the Michigan Supreme Court (ie: Oakland County has two, Livingston has one). As the business court judge Connors would get assigned the business court cases (I can't remember if there's one or two in Washtenaw).
Which is just about the best way to guaranty that Harbaugh won't get suspended... I'd love to see them wait for the 6 months it would take for the Court of Appeals to issue an order saying they don't see the need for an interlocutory appeal.
MCR 3.310(B)(3) - Except in domestic relations actions, a temporary restraining order granted without notice expires by its terms within such time after entry, not to exceed 14 days, as the court sets unless within the time so fixed the order, for good cause shown, is extended for a like period or unless the party against whom the order is directed consents that it may be extended for a longer period. The reasons for the extension must be stated on the record or in a document filed in the action.
If it's an ex parte tro they could get it before the removal. There's some grounds for ex parte relief with the way the Big Ten has acted (delaying)... plus they're not as strict in Washtenaw than some of the other courts around here.
She has a bachelors degree and worked while her husband was going through professional school
I remember covering this in law school - it was on how much a law degree is worth (couple divorced, wife put the husband through law school, at the divorce a question was how much she should get for putting him through law school). Can't remember any of the details though.
That's why I couldn't find it when I was looking for the link to share with a friend. I'll echo the sentiment - a really good documentary, and does a good job of covering the whole rivalry.
What's worked with me on my kids is bringing a bunch of candy, getting them into the cheers, and making sure to include them in the celebrations. My oldest daughter (7) has loved going to the games since she was 4, and even though she'll get bored at parts of it, always wants to stay until the end (plus setting up that as an expectation from the beginning helped).
Somebody on here really loves Dr. Pol with all of the downvotes.
FYI - the Court of Appeals opinion on Dr. Pol: https://law.justia.com/cases/michigan/court-of-appeals-unpublished/2019/344666.html
"In this case, a viewer of respondent’s television program took issue with the manner in which respondent performed an ovariohysterectomy procedure on a dog and filed an administrative complaint with petitioner. After an investigation, the Attorney General, on behalf of petitioner, filed a complaint, alleging that respondent’s behavior constituted negligence under MCL 333.16221(a) and incompetence under MCL 333.16221(b)(i). The factual basis for the complaint was that respondent (1) failed to intubate the dog or place an intravenous catheter in the dog during the surgical procedure, (2) failed to use an electronic monitoring device during the procedure, (3) failed to request assistance finding the dog’s uterus during the procedure, and (4) failed to wear a surgical cap, mask, and gown during the procedure. After the complaint was filed, petitioner received an additional complaint from a horse’s owners, alleging that, in the course of treating alaceration on the horse’s left hip, respondent failed to wear surgical gloves and reduce the hair surrounding the wound."
I can confirm - my wife (veterinarian) and all her friends (also veterinarians) are appalled by Dr. Pol and his quality of medicine/care. He's had his license suspended because of it (and lost in the Michigan Court of Appeals when he tried to overturn his suspension). She loves Dr. Oakley though and says if she wasn't married she'd go out there to work with her. One of the techs she worked with in the past also worked for Dr. Oakley for a season.
It was really hard on my family, but they grew a lot. For me it was about 10 minutes of terror, as I wrote emails to my kids (daddy may never see you again but loves you) and talked to my wife before they knocked me out (after 3-4 days in the hospital), then two weeks of sleep (with some crazy/terrible dreams/hallucinations), then waking up confused and super weak. It's still weird that I missed two weeks of the world though. At this point there's a lot of work to rebuild my muscles and body (and dealing with some of the mental trauma of the whole thing), and my lungs are still pretty weak, but at least I have the chance to recover.
1. Thanksgiving meal with my wife, two kids (6, 3), and my mom who's been staying with us while I'm recovering and my dad is still in the hospital.
3. Being able to have Thanksgiving this year. I'm in my third week out of the hospital (U of M) after spending three weeks there, and two weeks on a ventilator, from covid. From what I've been told, there were a lot of moments when I was out that I almost died (and based in on the medications they gave me when I was under, I crashed a couple of times). The staff at U of M are phenomenal, and without them and all the people praying I wouldn't be here. There's still lots of recovery to go (rebuilding my entire body from all of my muscles atrophying), but I'm still here. (There's little rhyme or reason to the virus - mid 30's, was pretty healthy, and didn't have any co-morbidities going in)
Also thankful that my dad is still alive - he got hit with covid and was on a vent, he's getting discharged soon and is going into rehab. With all his medical issues (kidney transplant, diabetes, etc), it didn't look like he would make it, but he did. (We're not sure how we got covid, but it hit one person in the family, and because my mom babysat the kids while my wife and I worked, it made its way through all of us)
That 20% off next year is the kicker - I added two more seats this year (up from 2). So if I'm getting 20% off everything, then I'm only paying $19.40 and floating Michigan at loan of $505 for a year (only made one payment on this year's tickets) for 100 points.
Limited is the key in those decisions - a major issue is that these orders aren't really limited (though, that would be the whole point of litigation - whether or not its limited, etc).
The problem is the essential/critical guidance by the federal government is less restrictive than the state's - and the governor's office hasn't been doing much clarification about it.
With no endgame in sight, there's a real chance we might hit that 18 month timeline that has been thrown around for a vaccine.
What scares me is that politicians have abandoned the idea of "lowering the curve" and instead are going for eliminating the virus (New York's governor has basically said that it's in lockdown until this thing is eradicated); and what politician wants to be the one that lifts all of the lockdowns first?
How long is it going to take people to be comfortable though? People are already terrified of going near someone, it's going to take a long time for that fear to subside.
Q: Are people who repair homes considered critical infrastructure employees for the purposes of Executive Order 2020-21?
In general, yes. Under the order, critical infrastructure workers include workers “who provide services that are necessary to maintaining the safety, sanitation, and essential operation of residences.” To the extent your workers perform jobs that are necessary to the safety, sanitation, and operation of homes, they may be designated as critical infrastructure workers.
Main problem is that the executive order is ambiguous as hell.

I grabbed mine on Friday at the fan event. I'm glad I did - people were telling me all the Michigan stuff was sold out by early Sunday.
It's made by Antigua. The blue one (what I got) is PO: 32794, Style#: 104722 according to the tags.
They're selling them in the CFP store at the fan event.
Attorneys (though not Michigan's) are stupified by this as well.
It's a preliminary injunction at this point, so the 14 days doesn't apply at all. It would be effective until the judge rules otherwise.
That's the biggest take that I had from it. That and there's a case from the Court of Appeals last week that's actually going to get published and also talked about the covenant of good faith and fair dealing (which finally clears up the no covenant of good faith and fair dealing except there really is one cases).
I'd imagine the pro hac motions will be in on Monday.

The hearing date would get set by the judge. There's not much you can do to get them to use a date of your choosing.
Doesn't matter what they want - the hearing gets set by the judge.
State judge. Michigan courts would have jurisdiction over the Big Ten in Michigan because of the amount of business and presence it has in Michigan.

That's the entire purpose of a TRO. They'll grant that and then schedule a hearing for the preliminary injunction.
It goes to the Eastern District, Southern division. It may get assigned to a judge in Detroit or Ann Arbor (or Flint) on the random draw.
If it's an ex parte tro they could get it before the removal. There's some grounds for ex parte relief with the way the Big Ten has acted (delaying)... plus they're not as strict in Washtenaw than some of the other courts around here.
Nice - I can stop doing my 10 cent searches then.
Nope, but the Big Ten could remove it to Federal.
My assumption is state court. I didn't see it on a quick search on Pacer.
I'm guessing Washtenaw County? I'm not seeing anything on Pacer (Federal Court filing system).
I remember covering this in law school - it was on how much a law degree is worth (couple divorced, wife put the husband through law school, at the divorce a question was how much she should get for putting him through law school). Can't remember any of the details though.
It did a really good job; it also has a lot of Eisen and Sam Webb.

Harbaugh said that Maryland does it once or twice a game, so they planned on doing it if they kicked it like that.

That's great that he's doing better. Recovery from covid is a long process (that I'm only in the beginning of).

Same - I've even tried with a fresh browser.

That's why it's a "federal" government - it doesn't have as much power as the states in this.
Whitmer has already asked the legislature for 70 days.
That's hilarious and terrifying. It was more like a dirge at Costco.
