Examples of a bona fide error include clerical, calculation, computer malfunction, programming, or printing errors. An error in legal judgment with respect to a person's obligations under this act is not a bona fide error. A violation of this act resulting from a bona fide error may be corrected in the same manner as provided for in section 130(b) of the truth-in-lending act, 15 U.S.C. 1640(b). The burden of proving that a violation was an unintentional and bona fide error is on the retail seller.","path":["MI Code","Chapter 445","Act Act-224-of-1966"],"source_url":"https://www.legislature.mi.gov/Laws/MCL?objectName=mcl-445-871a","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:31Z","sha256":"096dbbaecba626b3d56d55643c640bd2853e838ce002074bd311d7b43690d828","source_id":"us-mi","stale":false,"prev":"us-mi/mich.-comp.-laws-445.871","next":"us-mi/mich.-comp.-laws-445.872"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
