Little Guy Faces Jail For Scalping A Ticket, Corporations Do It Every Day – Michigan Capitol Confidential:
"Polling shows widespread support in Michigan for decriminalizing ticket scalping.
Legislation sponsored by state Rep. Tim Kelly, R-Saginaw Township (R), would do exactly that.
It passed the Michigan House this month by a vote of 71 to 36 but faces an uncertain future in the Senate.
Michigan law currently prohibits a person from reselling event tickets above their face value unless the venue hosting the event grants permission, and the ban is supported by some sports and entertainment venues.
Business websites such as StubHub can get around the ban by getting permission from the venue, however.
...But someone who sells a U-M or other event ticket to another person without the venue’s or operator’s permission commits a misdemeanor that carries penalties of up to 90 days in jail and a $500 fine.
...Kelly's bill was supported by 54 Republicans and 17 Democrats in the House, where it was opposed by nine Republicans and 27 Democrats..."
