Michigan

Public records software that already knows Michigan's law.

Brandeis ships with a statute profile for the Michigan Freedom of Information Act — the response clock, extension rules, exemption citations, and appeal language your AI agents and your staff work from on day one. The law is configuration, not a professional-services project.

5
business days to respond
Computed from receipt — weekends, holidays, and day type handled by the deadline math, not a spreadsheet.
+10
business days of extension
Notice required — the drafting agent writes it with the permitted reason cited.
4
seeded exemption citations
The exemption agent flags passages with Michigan's own sections.
1
nightly deadline sweep
An agent watches every open request's clock, every night.
Exemptions, cited not vibed

The agents quote Michigan, chapter and verse.

When an AI agent flags a passage for exemption, the flag carries the citation — and a named staffer confirms or dismisses every one. The starter profile seeds the most-cited sections:

MCL 15.243(1)(a)

Personal privacy

MCL 15.243(1)(b)

Law enforcement investigating records

MCL 15.243(1)(g)

Attorney-client privilege

MCL 15.243(1)(m)

Advisory / deliberative communications

If a denial is appealed: Written appeal to the head of the public body, or circuit court action within 180 days (MCL 15.240). (180-day appeal window — on the clock too.) The appeal-packet agent assembles counsel's dossier straight from the audit log.

Reviewed, then live

Starter profile, finished with your counsel.

Public-records statutes are nuanced. The Michigan profile ships as a reviewed starting point — day counts, sections, and appeal language your counsel confirms and tunes per agency before go-live. It is configuration to verify, never legal advice.
