Lawsuit Dismissed Against City of South Haven
A lawsuit against the City of South Haven has been dismissed regarding the 2020 drowning death of 18-year-old Brandon Chambers at South Beach.
Chambers drowned while swimming in Lake Michigan. His estate filed a lawsuit alleging the city ignored dangerous weather conditions and failed to post red flags.
The city claimed immunity due to providing a public service, except when profit is involved. Initially, a Van Buren County Circuit Court judge denied this claim, citing beach revenue profit.
However, the Michigan Court of Appeals recently ruled in favor of the city, finding that South Haven used beach revenue for government-related projects, not profit.
No profit was made from beach revenue, according to the Michigan Court of Appeals.
Author's summary: Lawsuit against South Haven dismissed.
