Does Michigan law regulate the means by which a landlord may recover possession of leased premises?

Michigan lawyers and top litigation attorneys: Pear, Sperlin...
Yes. Michigan law specifically prohibits self-help evictions, requires that the District Courts supervise all eviction proceedings and imposes stiff penalties on anyone who attempts to forcibly remove a tenant from rental (or land contract) premises. The appropriate legal action, known as summary proceedings to recover possession of realty, is intended to provide prompt relief to both landlord and tenant in such circumstances.
