The case is about a dispute over damages caused by dust, noise, and vibrations from the Empire Mine's operations. The court decides that Michigan's law of trespass only covers physical objects and does not extend to airborne particulate, noise, or vibrations. The court distinguishes between trespass and nuisance, stating that recovery for trespass requires proof of an immediate intrusion onto the land, while recovery for nuisance requires substantial interference with the plaintiff's right to quiet enjoyment of their property.
