Michigan Immigrant Rights Center v. Governor
The Michigan Supreme Court, post-oral argument, denied petition for review raising whether a statute barring claims against the state unless the plaintiff provides notice of the claim within one year of accrual, applies to constitutional claims for prospective relief against state officials. The issue arose in a due process challenge seeking forward-looking relief against officials’ alleged policy of denying workers’ compensation to undocumented workers based on their immigration status.
