Macomb County restaurants file lawsuit against Whitmer over closures


Albert Addis is the Macomb County attorney representing the recently formed Macomb County Restaurant, Bar and Banquet Association. Addis alleges that under the state’s constitution the restaurant business has been taken away without "just compensation."
“We filed this lawsuit on a simple legal premise that we think is strong, and one that has not been decided by any court yet,” Addis told the Macomb Daily. “That premise is the Michigan constitution does not allow the government by fiat to take away people’s property and businesses without just compensation."
The association is asking for a jury trial and damages in excess of $25,000.
