STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS
PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, FOR PUBLICATION March 18, 2021 Plaintiff-Appellant, v No. 352786 Marquette Circuit Court DENNIS LEE SWENOR, LC No. 19-000583-FH Defendant-Appellant.
Before: FORT HOOD, P.J., and SAWYER and SERVITTO, JJ.
Servitto, J. (concurring) I concur in the result only. The arguments set forth in the prosecution’s appeal brief address whether a policy concerning an inventory search of a defendant’s personal property must be in writing, whereas the arguments the prosecution pursued in the trial court were based on an assertion that a written policy applicable to such searches did exist. Because the prosecution did not first raise the specific issues now before this Court in the trial court (until its motion for reconsideration), I would deem the issues before this Court unpreserved and I would therefore decline to address them.
/s/ Deborah A. Servitto
