In this one-off podcast we discuss cases I want to talk about.
City of Warren v. MI State Construction Code Commission–Can the Michigan Legislature delegate is legislative making decision to an unelected board? That’s the power given to the MI Construction Code Commission when they adopt the construction codes to be used and enforced within the entire State of Michigan. But is that a power that Michigan Legislature should be required to implement?
McGoldrick v. Holiday Amusement–Is it negligent for a ski resort to place tension wires necessary for tow ropes in areas where skiers might ski into them? What level of protection does a ski resort have against personal injury lawsuits?
Richards v. Boyne USA–What level of responsibility does a ski instructor have to their “newbie” skiers? Can a skier waive their right to sue a ski resort when the skier injures themself? Does it matter if the injury was a result of the ski instructor’s negligence?
