Judge: Muskegon Co. landscaper violated state order

LANSING, Mich. (WOOD) — A Muskegon County Circuit Court judge ruled that a landscaping company was in violation of the statewide Stay Home, Stay Safe executive order after a cease-and-desist letter was issued by prosecutors.

Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel and Muskegon County Prosecutor D.J. Hilson say they sent Landscape Supply the letter April 14 after authorities received complaints that the company was providing lawn care services and putting flyers on mailboxes.
