People v. Gentner, Inc.

Michigan Court of Appeals

Decided June 10, 2004No. Docket No. 249559PublishedCited by 9 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtDonofrio, J.

Plaintiff appeals by leave granted a circuit court order reversing the district court’s finding that defendant was responsible for the civil infraction of overweight vehicle, MCL 257.722(1)(b), dismissing the complaint, and ordering that all fines and costs be refunded to defendant. Because we find that the “reason to believe” requirement of MCL 257.724(1) is not an element that must be proven in a prosecution for the civil infraction of overweight vehicle, MCL 257.722, we reverse.
