Michigan Legal Milestones

The Michigan Legal Milestones program recognizes significant legal cases and personalities in Michigan’s history and uses bronze plaques, placed at featured sites, to relate the historical significance. A new milestone is dedicated each year. The Legal Milestone plaques are on display across the state.

The 36th Legal Milestone

The historic U.S. Supreme Court case Milliken v. Bradley, which addressed the planned desegregation of schools and busing in Detroit, is the subject of the State Bar's 36th Michigan Legal Milestone. The dedication ceremony will be held September 16, 2011, as part of the Bar's Annual Meeting.
