Little v. Hirschman

Michigan Supreme Court

Decided March 31, 2004No. 121836, Calendar No. 7PublishedCited by 14 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtTaylor, J.

We granted leave to appeal in this case to consider whether a 1913 plat dedication of two parks “to the owners of the several lots” is valid. That is, is it enforceable by those in the chain of title from the original purchasers of the lots. The Court of Appeals held that it was not on the basis that private dedications are invalid. We disagree with the Court of Appeals and thus reverse its judgment and remand to that Court for further consideration.
