Latest Case Law Summaries
- People v. Valeriano Acosta-Baustista - Michigan Court of Appeals
Therefore, the Court held that "The defendant was driving on a Mexican issued license as permitted by the convention and the fact that defendant's license was expired at the time of the accident does not implicate the application of MCL 257.904. Consequently, the circuit court did not err when it granted defendant's motion to quash the bindover because this evidence does not demonstrate probable cause to believe defendant is guilty of violating MCL 257.904(4)."
