Defendant, Michigan Governor File Briefs Seeking Dismissal Of Flint Water Case

DETROIT - One of the defendants sued by Flint, Mich., residents seeking damages for lead-contaminated drinking water filed a brief in Michigan federal court on May 25, arguing that the complaint against it should be dismissed for lack of personal jurisdiction and for failure to state a cause of action. Meanwhile, Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder filed a brief insisting that the case should be dismissed because he is immune from liability (Myia McMillian, et al. v. Governor Richard D. Snyder, et al., No. 16-10796, E.D. Mich.).
