The lawsuit, filed March 30 in Oakland County Circuit Court, comes as debate heats up over whether Michigan should allow wolf hunting after the Trump administration stripped gray wolves of federal Endangered Species Act protections last year.
The civil suit accuses Eichinger of attempting to “stack the deck in favor of wolf hunting” on a group that, by law, must include Eichinger or a designee, plus members representing conservation, hunting or fishing interests, tribal government, agriculture and animal advocacy.
Although the advisory council cannot make decisions about whether Michigan should have a wolf hunt that task is reserved for the Michigan Natural Resources Commission its advice could influence the commission’s eventual decision.

Tech Advances in Michigan Courts May Leave Some Behind

(TNS) Plexiglas partitions, arraignments of defendants from their homes and judges moderating virtual hearings have become the norm for courts across
Michigan since COVID-19 was discovered in the state just over a year ago.
Courthouses once full of defendants, their families, jurors and attorneys are now empty halls of justice, with most hearings moved online to prevent the spread of the virus that has killed more than 16,000 Michiganians.

A suspect in the robbery of a jewelry store in downtown Milford has been found competent to stand trial.
48-year-old Dennis Michael Maynarich of South Lyon was charged with armed robbery for the September 1st incident at the Rottermond Jewelers on North Main Street. A criminal responsibility exam ordered last October was reviewed Tuesday in Oakland County Circuit Court, where it was determined he was competent to stand trial. A May 4th pretrial hearing was scheduled with a June 7th trial date also set.
Authorities say Maynarich, who remains jailed on a $500,000 bond, walked into the Rottermond store with a gun and demanded a particular piece of jewelry before fleeing. Responding officers then located him in a nearby parking lot.
