Centra, Inc. v. Jaffe

Supreme Court of Michigan
Jan 19, 2001
622 N.W.2d 789 (Mich. 2001)

Opinion

No. 118422 (15)(16).

January 19, 2001.


SC: 118422, COA: 231824, Wayne CC: 93-327681-NZ.

The trial court is cautioned that, in instructing the jury and in otherwise considering whether defendant actually represented plaintiff in 1988-1989 and 1991-1992, it should avoid relying on dicta in the Court of Appeals 1996 opinion suggesting that the counseling of a "quorum" of the board of directors transforms the representation of individual directors into a representation of the corporate entity. See Centra, Inc. v. Jaffe, Raitt, Heuer Weiss, PC, unpublished opinion per curiam of the court of appeals, issued September 6, 1996 (Docket No. 181803), slip op, pp 2-3. The stay of proceedings is vacated. Court of Appeals No. 231824.

CAVANAGH, J.

I would simply deny leave to appeal.


I concur with the order's holding, to deny the motion to strike the supplement to the application, to deny the application for leave to appeal, and to vacate the stay of proceedings. I write separately because I do not join in the majority's statement about the Court of Appeals unpublished per curiam opinion issued September 6, 1996 (Docket No. 181803), slip op, pp 2-3, and will express no opinion thereon unless we would grant leave and after we would hear this case.
