Plaintiff brought this action under Michigan’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), MCL 15.231 et seq., and appeals by right the trial court’s order granting summary disposition to defendants. Plaintiff, a nonprofit corporation, brought suit against defendants seeking an order requiring defendants to produce certain public records not exempt under the FOIA, reasonable attorney fees, and punitive damages.
