On July 11, 2024, the Heron Cove Association (HCA) appealed Midland Circuit Court Judge Beale’s June 20, 2024 Opinion and Order dismissing its challenge of the Four Lakes lake level special assessment rolls. They had 56 days to file their brief in support of the appeal filed on September 5, 2024. The Court of Appeals granted, in part, FLTF’s Motion to Expedite the briefing schedule, and in accordance with that order, on September 18 FLTF filed its Brief on Appeal requesting Michigan Court of Appeals affirm Judge Beale’s decision. HCA will have seven days from September 18 to file a reply to our brief, and at some point the Court of Appeals will schedule the matter for oral argument. We hope the Court of Appeals will schedule this matter for argument as soon as possible, however, the Court is booked in October so the earliest the matter may be heard is November.
