Michigan's Supreme Court has refused to hear an appeal by a group of voters in the state who filed a legal challenge to former President Donald Trump's candidacy for next year's presidential primary.
The apex Court in the state declined to review a ruling of the Michigan Court of Appeals that granted Trump's request to stop the proceedings at the primary stage, as opposed to the general election. The lower court's ruling was based on technicalities of Michigan state law regarding when challenges to presidential candidates' qualifications may be filed. The court held that these challenges may not be filed before the primary.
