Summary

[This appeal was from the ED-MI.] In an order, the court granted the defendants’ motion for panel rehearing in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Tackett, which overruled the court’s decision in Yard-Man. The court remanded the case to the district court for reconsideration, and further proceedings, if required. The court vacated its prior opinion in this case (see e-Journal # 56956 in the 4/29/14 edition).
