Parties | Appeal of Phillip Earl GREEN, Appellee. CLINTON COUNTY PROSECUTING ATTORNEY, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. 65TH DISTRICT JUDGE, Defendant. 402 Mich. 835, 282 N.W.2d 924 |
Court | Michigan Supreme Court |
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal is considered and, pursuant to GCR 1963, 853.2(4), in lieu of leave to appeal, the Court of Appeals is REVERSED, and the matter is REMANDED to the 65th District Court for further proceedings. The alleged police misconduct in this case took place prior to April 7, 1975, the decisional date of People v. Beavers, 393 Mich. 554, 227 N.W.2d 511 (1975). In Beavers, we indicated that our decision was to be applied prospectively. Accordingly, Beavers only has applicability to police misconduct which occurred after April 7, 1975. People v. Drielick, 400 Mich. 559, 255 N.W.2d 619 (1977).
