- Davis v. Detroit Public Schools Community District – Court of Appeals holds that opponents of public financing for construction of sports arena lacked standing to seek declaratory and mandamus relief to require school board to place on next city election ballot question asking city voters to approve or disapprove of tax increment finance entities’ use of property tax revenue intended for school operating purposes to finance sports arena, where opponents were not affected by school board’s decision in any personal and individual way, and school board’s failure to place tax question on ballot affected all city voters equally.
- And finally, BCB’s Department of Gratuitous Pedantry is proud to present Sugamele v. Town of Hempstead, in which the court stated that “a speedboat occupied by seven people allided with Goose Island.” No, that’s not a typo, but rather the technical nautical term for colliding with a fixed object (such as Goose Island). Good grief. But then we remembered that the New York bar (which your editor has, shocking, passed) is one of the few that covers maritime law. We’re sure that the use of such precise terminology is a great comfort to the 4 survivors. Wether it comes as a comfort to the 3 deceased passengers depends on your personal eschatological inclinations.
