Monday’s Adjudication Roundup

By Jamila Moore

  • Local Michigan real estate developers are unhappy about the stall in their plan to develop Detroit’s basketball arena. Not only are the duo developer organizations asking the court to dismiss the suit against them by local residents, they also requests sanctions against the residents. The developers allege the lawsuit is frivolous and has no legal or factual merit.
  • The town of Newton, New Jersey is not out of the clear yet. Recently a state judge revived a suit against the town. An owner of an apartment building in the town challenged the town’s property assessment policies and rules. Upon the next hearing, the Court will render a decision regarding the timelines of the property owners challenge and the town’s compliance with New Jersey tax law.
