A2: ACLU

By

The Detroit News reports that the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan has filed a lawsuit on behalf of an Ann Arbor family whose young son was put in foster care after his father, UM professor Christopher Ratté, gave him a Mike’s Hard Lemonade at a 2008 Detroit Tigers game – not knowing it was an alcoholic beverage. From the report: “According to the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, the state’s standard for the emergency removal of children is unconstitutional because it does not require state officials to prove that the child is in immediate danger.” [Source]
