What Does It Mean To "Operate" A Motor Vehicle For Purposes of Michigan's DUI Statutes?
Most people think they have a good idea of what it means to "operate" a vehicle when accused of drunk driving. They usually envision the typical scenario of a police officer driving behind a vehicle on a highway that is swerving between the lanes. The police officer executes a traffic stop and, when he approaches the rolled-down driver's side window, he smells the powerful odor of alcohol and intoxicants. The police officer then administers a PBT (preliminary breath test) to discover that the driver is over the legal limit and then executes an arrest. But what about those situations where it is not so clear that the driver was "operating" the vehicle? What if the officer finds the drunk individual in the parking lot when the car is turned off? What if the officer finds the drunk individual in a running car engaged in the parking or neutral gear but he or she was sleeping at the wheel? Are they "operating" the vehicle?
Does A Parent Who Conceived A Child By Rape Have Rights To Custody Or Parenting Time In Michigan?
In September 2017, a Sanilac County circuit court judge granted joint legal custody of a child to a convicted rapist. The father had two convictions for criminal sexual conduct, including one against the mother who he attacked in 2008 when she was only 12-years old. The case started when the mother sought public assistance to care for her now 8-year old son. This led the State of Michigan to locate the biological father through DNA testing so that he would have an obligation to pay child support and reimburse the public assistance paid. However, that judge declared at a hearing that the rapist father would have sole physical custody and joint legal custody, meaning that he would have a right to participate in major decisions in his son's life.
