Michigan Association of County Treasurers Responds to Lawsuits What we had was a situation where state tax law was in conflict with the new Supreme Court ruling.
January 25, 2021
Michigan County Treasurers are speaking out after word of state and federal lawsuits over the proceeds from tax foreclosures.
We reported last week that an attorney has filed class-action lawsuits in 19 counties, and is working on a federal suit against 43 counties – claiming that treasurers are going against a state Supreme Court ruling. At that time, 9&10 contacted two of the affected counties in northern Michigan, but we did not receive a response from our request for comment.
