Plaintiff-Appellant,
v
SHEPHERD PRODUCTS, USA, INC.,
No. 199681
Berrien Circuit Court
LC No. 88-002662-NP-G,
ON REMAND
Defendant-Appellee.
Before: Doctoroff, P.J., and Murphy and Fitzgerald, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
This case comes to us on remand from our Supreme Court. In a May 23, 1995, unpublished
per curiam opinion (Judge Allen dissenting), Docket No. 157008, we reversed the jury verdict of no
cause of action, concluding that the jury was improperly instructed. Defendant’s application for leave to
appeal in the Supreme Court was held in abeyance pending the Supreme Court’s decision in Travis v
Dreis & Krump Mfg Co, 453 Mich 149; 551 NW2d 149 (1996). On November 22, 1996, the
Supreme Court remanded this case to this panel for reconsideration in light of Travis.
After a review of Travis, we find nothing that requires us to amend or modify any part of our
previous opinion. Plaintiff is entitled to a new trial.
Reversed and remanded for proceedings consistent with this Court’s opinions.
/s/ Martin M. Doctoroff
/s/ William B. Murphy
/s/ E. Thomas Fitzgerald
