Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Michigan Compiled Laws § 37.1101 et seq. establishes the formal name of a state law: the 'persons with disabilities civil rights act.' This section is a short-title provision, meaning it simply gives the act its official citation name and does not itself create rights or obligations. The substantive protections and requirements of the law are found in the sections that follow this one.

For Property Managers

As a property owner or manager operating in Michigan, it is useful to know that MCL § 37.1101 et seq. is the foundational citation for the persons with disabilities civil rights act. This short-title section itself imposes no direct operational requirements, but the act as a whole governs how landlords must treat applicants and residents with disabilities. Familiarity with the act's full title helps operators correctly identify the law when reviewing compliance obligations or responding to formal complaints.

For Tenants

MCL § 37.1101 et seq., known as the persons with disabilities civil rights act, is the Michigan state law that provides civil rights protections for people with disabilities, including in housing contexts. This particular section simply establishes the act's official name, but the broader act contains substantive rights that tenants with disabilities may be able to invoke. Tenants who believe their rights under this act have been violated may explore options such as filing a complaint with a relevant state agency or consulting a tenant-rights organization familiar with Michigan disability law.
