• Jennifer Buhl v. City of Oak Park
  Jennifer Buhl tripped on an uneven sidewalk and sustained injuries in 2016. In 2017 the Michigan Legislature amended the Government Tort Liability Act to allow governmental entities to assert additional defenses not available to governmental entities in the past. Jennifer Buhl filed a lawsuit against the City of Oak Park in 2017. Defendant City of Oak Park filed a motion to dismiss the matter based on the new defense of open and obvious. Jennifer's counsel argued that the amendment of the statute was not retroactive and therefore since her injury was incurred in 2016, the amended version of the statute did not apply. The trial court and the Michigan Court of Appeals agreed with the Defendant City of Oak Park that the statute was retroactive. The Michigan Supreme Court disagreed with the trial court and Court of Appeals and found that the statute was not retroactive and that Defendant City of Oak Park could not rely on open and obvious as a defense.

• Associated Surgical Center v. State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company
  A medical provider sued and insurance carrier for unpaid services related to a patient who sustained injury in an auto accident. The medical provider had obtained an assignment of rights from the patient in order to pursue its claims against the auto insurance carrier. During the pendency of the lawsuit, the auto carrier filed a motion to dismiss based on an anti-assignment clause in its auto policy. The trial court agreed with the Defendant and dismissed the case. The Court of Appeals overruled the trial court and found the anti-assignment clause to be unenforceable.
