Michigan SB1017 regulates contracts involving student athletes' name, image, and likeness.

Michigan SB1017 amends existing law to regulate contracts involving student athletes' name, image, and likeness. It prohibits student athletes from entering into contracts that provide compensation for the use of their name, image, or likeness if the contract remains in effect after the athlete is no longer eligible for intercollegiate athletics. The bill also mandates that any litigation or dispute resolution related to such contracts must occur in Michigan and be governed by Michigan law. Additionally, it voids any contracts that violate these provisions.
