  1. Demski v. Petlick

    309 Mich. App. 404 (Mich. Ct. App. 2015)   Cited 154 times
    In Demski, 309 Mich.App. at 448-449, this Court found that the trial court failed to address the desirability of maintaining the child's continuity with the mother and instead focused on whether the child would be safe at the father's house after he testified he would no longer use medical marijuana and would keep the child safe around his dog.

    In granting the plaintiff's application for leave to appeal in Helton, the Supreme Court identified that issue as among those to be briefed by the parties to that appeal. See Helton v. Beaman, 497 Mich. 865, 853 N.W.2d 96 (2014). The RPA authorizes a trial court to (1) revoke an acknowledgment of parentage, (2) set aside an order of filiation, (3) determine that a child is born out of wedlock, and (4) make a determination of paternity and enter an order of filiation.
