Description
Complaint by Judith M. Breckon, administratrix of the estates of Herman E. Anderson, deceased, and Thora M. Anderson, deceased,
against Franklin Fuel Company, a Michigan corporation, and Eddie Grover, for wrongful death. Judgment for plaintiff. Defendants
appealed to the Court of Appeals and petitioned Supreme Court for leave to appeal prior to decision by the Court of Appeals.
Leave granted. Upon application of the defendants for bypass of the Court of Appeals, the six participating Justices resolved unanimously
August 15, 1968 to reconsider Wycko v. Gnodtke (1960), 361 Mich 331, and review in that light the instant cause for wrongful
death. The need for such action became crescently apparent as the Court divided equally in Burns v. Van Laan (1962), 367 Mich
485, 497, and thereafter divided when the wrongful death actions shown by Currie v. Fiting (1965), 375 Mich 440; Heider v.
Michigan Sugar Company (1965), 375 Mich 490; Reisig v. Klusendorf (1965), 375 Mich 519; Wilson v. Modern Mobile Homes, Inc.
(1965), 376 Mich 342; and Mosier v. Carney (1965), 376 Mich 532, came one after the other to doubtful precedent.
