Peninsula Township has been granted a stay by Judge Paul Maloney of the U.S. District Court’s Western Michigan division, preventing them from having to pay a roughly $49 million damages judgment to several wineries and a trade group while their appeal is ongoing. Notably, the judge also waived the requirement for the township to post a bond to pause collection of the judgment, which is typical in such cases. This decision provides temporary relief to the township as they pursue their appeal against the wineries’ lawsuit.
