Michigan HB4988 amends landlord-tenant law to remove a cross-reference to the 1846 Revised Statutes.

Michigan HB4988 amends section 6 of 1978 PA 454, specifically removing a cross-reference to the revised statutes of 1846. The bill outlines tenant rights when a rental agreement violates certain provisions, allowing tenants to seek relief such as voiding the agreement, enjoining the landlord from including the provision in future agreements, or recovering damages. The bill also specifies conditions under which tenants can exercise these remedies without prior notice to the landlord. The amendment ensures that the 1846 statutes are no longer cited in the current law.
