A judge says Governor Rick Snyder did not properly give notice to residents losing cash assistance through the state.

So for now, the money will keep flowing.

Snyder's office sent NBC25 the following response Wednesday:

"We’re happy to comply with the judge’s order and give another notice to affected recipients that more closely reflects the concerns noted. DHS will continue its intense outreach efforts and working hard to make sure families are connected to the resources necessary to achieve independence and to help them access a host of others programs – from food assistance and Medicaid to child care, temporary rental assistance and job placement initiatives – they may be eligible for."

The statement comes from Snyder's press secretary Sara Wurfel.
