On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the July 7, 2009
judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is GRANTED, limited to the
issues whether: (1) defendants Wayne County and Wayne County Sheriff’s Department
may be held liable to the plaintiff for quid pro quo sexual harassment under MCL
37.2103(i); (2) the plaintiff’s incarceration in the Wayne County Jail is a public service
within the meaning of MCL 37.2301(b); and (3) the trial court erred in permitting the
plaintiff to amend her complaint to allege violations of the Michigan Civil Rights Act.
The motions for leave to file briefs amicus curiae are GRANTED. The Michigan
Association for Justice and the Michigan Defense Trial Counsel, Inc. are invited to file
briefs amicus curiae. Other persons or groups interested in the determination of the
issues presented in this case may move the Court for permission to file briefs amicus
curiae.
I, Corbin R. Davis, Clerk of the Michigan Supreme Court, certify that the
foregoing is a true and complete copy of the order entered at the direction of the Court.
