Torts: Michigan Law and Practice provides comprehensive coverage of tort actions ranging from intentional torts to statutory civil rights claims. The book includes new discussion of recent caselaw involving stalking, fraudulent misrepresentation and silent fraud, and a school's vicarious liability for student-on-student harassment.

Noncompete Agreements

Legal Update

On January 5, 2023, the Federal Trade Commission proposed a new rule that, if enacted, would ban employers from entering into noncompetition agreements with new employees and would require employers to rescind existing noncompete clauses binding current employees. This new Legal Update provides a summary of the proposed rule.

Excluding a Child Under ROPA

New Checklist

A party may bring an action under the Revocation of Paternity Act (ROPA) to revoke an acknowledgment, set aside a genetic father determination, set aside a paternity order, or determine that a child is born out of wedlock. This new checklist can be used when preparing to file an action under ROPA to exclude a child born during a marriage.
