From Detroit News:
Lansing—The state Court of Appeals on Thursday heard oral arguments in four cases in which lower courts ruled financial review teams appointed under Public Act 4 violated the Open Meetings Act.
Two of the cases were filed by activist Robert Davis against the Detroit Financial Review Team. A similar case was filed against the Detroit team by AFCME activist Edward McNeil. The fourth case was filed against the Flint financial review team.
