The Michigan Court of Appeals affirmed dismissal of a habeas corpus petition, holding that the failure to hold a probable cause conference under MCL 766.4 and MCR 6.108 does not create a jurisdictional defect that voids a subsequent criminal conviction, because the conference is waivable by agreement and waivable procedural requirements cannot give rise to non-waivable jurisdictional defects.
The Michigan Court of Appeals affirmed termination of a mother’s parental rights to her youngest child but vacated the termination as to the oldest child, holding that the trial court failed to expressly consider the oldest child’s relative placement with her biological father—an explicit statutory factor that weighs against termination and must be addressed on the record before a best-interest determination can stand.
