AI Summary
This bill amends the 1972 Michigan law that regulates the relationship between landlords and tenants. The key changes are: (1) it prohibits landlords from requiring prospective tenants to disclose certain types of juvenile records, such as convictions that have been set aside, findings of juvenile delinquency, participation in diversion programs, and similar records from other states; (2) it allows landlords to still inquire about other types of criminal convictions; and (3) it provides that if a landlord violates the prohibition, a prospective tenant can seek injunctive relief, the landlord may be subject to civil fines, and the prospective tenant can recover costs and attorney's fees.
