STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS NASHARA LANGSTON, UNPUBLISHED November 7, 2000 Plaintiff, and THERESA STROTHER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v WALTER BRODOCK, JR., and ZEELAND FREIGHT SERVICES, INC. a/k/a ZEELAND FARM SERVICES, INC., No. 220716 Ottawa Circuit Court LC No. 97-027217-NI Defendants-Appellees. Before: Jansen, P.J., and Doctoroff and O’Connell, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Plaintiff Strothers appeals by leave granted a July 13, 1999, Ottawa Circuit Court order granting summary disposition in favor of defendants in this third-party automobile negligence action. The trial court granted the motion on the ground that MCL 500.3135(2)(c); MSA 24.13135(2)(c) barred plaintiff Strothers’ action because the vehicle she owned and operated at the time of the accident was uninsured. We affirm. Plaintiff argues that MCL 500.3135(2)(c); MSA 24.13135(2)(c) violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Michigan Constitution. We disagree. This Court recently rejected plaintiff’s arguments in Stevenson v Reese, 239 Mich App 513, 517-520; 609 NW2d 195 (2000). We follow Stevenson and affirm the trial court’s order granting defendant’s motion for summary disposition. Affirmed. /s/ Kathleen Jansen /s/ Martin M. Doctoroff /s/ Peter D. O’Connell -2
