In Cassidy v. McGovern, 415 Mich. 483; 330 N.W.2d 22 (1982), the Supreme Court held plaintiff Cassidy's injuries were a serious impairment of body function as a matter of law. Cassidy's injuries were "complete breaks of both bones in his lower right leg for which he was hospitalized for eighteen days and wore casts for seven months." Further, the plaintiff suffered dizzy spells affecting his mobility and minor residual effects lasting approximately 1 1/2 years after the accident. The Cassidy Court explained: This conclusion that walking is an important body function is not affected one way or another by the fact that Leo Cassidy is a potato farmer who must be on his feet for long hours. We believe that the Legislature intended an objective standard that looks to the effect of an injury on the person's general ability to live a normal life. 415 Mich. at 505.
