Property owners seeking to hold the state of Michigan responsible for a disastrous dam failure have won a key ruling from an appeals court.
After three days of rain, the dam collapsed in May 2020, releasing a torrent that overtopped the downstream Sanford Dam and flooded the city of Midland. Thousands of people were temporarily evacuated and 150 homes were destroyed.
The court noted a 2020 Michigan Supreme Court decision about state liability in the Flint water crisis. The state’s highest court said Flint residents could sue over decisions that ultimately caused lead contamination in the city.
