The Michigan Supreme Court has denied a request to review a Michigan Court of Appeals decision that would have removed former President Donald Trump from the 2024 Republican presidential primary ballot in the state. The request was made by four voters who challenged Trump's candidacy under the Constitution's "insurrection clause." The Michigan Court of Appeals had previously rejected the challenge this month, and the Michigan Supreme Court's decision to deny the request means Trump will remain on the ballot.

Michigan judge has ruled that former President Donald Trump can remain on the state's ballot for the 2024 presidential primaries, despite a legal challenge from a group of Michigan voters. Trump then brought a suit of his own, asking the same judge to bar Michigan election officials from knocking him off the ballot. The judge's decision means that Trump will remain on the ballot at least through the 2024 presidential primaries in the state, and it is unclear if the decision will be appealed or if other states will follow suit.
The Michigan Court of Appeals has ruled that the parents of a teenager who killed four students at a Michigan high school can face trial for involuntary manslaughter. The parents are accused of purchasing a gun for their son and not taking him home from school on the day of the shooting. This case could set a precedent for holding parents accountable for their children's actions and will proceed to a full trial, where the defendants can present evidence in their defense.
