ADVERTISEMENTS
"Weaver to resign; Justice ends 16 years on Supreme Court": This past Thursday's edition of The Traverse City Record-Eagle contained an article that begins, "Justice Elizabeth Weaver, of Glen Arbor, whose frequent battles with fellow Republican justices over the past decade exposed deep political and personal rifts on the Michigan Supreme Court, plans to resign today." And Friday's edition of the newspaper reported that "Local judge to replace Weaver on court."

In Friday's edition of The Detroit Free Press, Dawson Bell had articles headlined "New appointment, Elizabeth Weaver's exit shake up Michigan Supreme Court; Elizabeth Weaver denies talks with Granholm to name Alton Davis were shady" and "Roots a boost for new justice; Davis, like Weaver, hails from Up North."

Friday's edition of The Detroit News reported that "Surprise Granholm appointment changes state Supreme Court makeup; Weaver steps down; Gov appoints appeals judge Davis" and "Davis could be consensus-builder state Supreme Court needs, lawyers say." And today's newspaper reports that "GOP picks Wayne judge to reclaim Supreme Court seat."

Friday's edition of The Petoskey News-Review reported that "Michigan high court's newest justice has local ties."

And Booth Newspapers reported on Friday that "Granholm's Supreme Court appointee following Justice Elizabeth Weaver's surprise resignation changes dynamics of court and fall election."
