"JUSTICE Swainson's resig-
nation is absolutely consistent
with the deep strength and
character of the man. He has
always made significant contri-
butions to our state and our
profession."
The resignation gives Milliken
an opportunity to appoint a Re-
piblican justice-and thus swing
the court to GOP control for the
first time since the late 1960s.
The court was deadlocked 3-3
with one independent justice,
Charles Levin.

bare fields where they can look
for waste grain and weed seeds.
They eat grit or coarse sand,
too.

persistently when

to do is to get up and go
but God elects to

ghost.
