Greenfield Construction Co. v. Department of State Highways

I am signing Justice Ryan’s opinion and concur that the contract specifications are not "rules” within the meaning of the Administrative Procedures Act of 1969, MCL 24.201 et seq.; MSA 3.560(101) et seq., that the circuit court erroneously asserted jurisdiction of this case; and that whether or not the Court of Claims has declaratory judgment power is not an issue in this case.

I would add, in agreement with Justice Cole*201man, and for the reasons she stated, that Greenfield should be permitted to file its claim in the Court of Claims even if the statutory limitation period has run.

Levin, J.
