Marshall Attorney Richard Lindsay, on the MAEDA/Ford legal team, returns to Community Matters after the latest developments in the long legal drama surrounding Ford’s BlueOval battery plant development.
In late February 2026, the Michigan Court of Appeals reviewed and re-released its standings on the case – a directive sent by the Michigan Supreme Court in 2025.
Shortly after that decision, the Committee for Marshall – Not the Megasite announced it would take its case back to the high court.
Lindsey offers his perspective on what could happen next in the case.
