            <description><![CDATA[Perhaps here's a sign of better times: Michigan bankruptcy cases are down again.

Looking out a bit longer, new cases in Michigan are down 28 percent compared to 2009.

The state seems to be reflecting what's happened nationally. The government says new bankruptcy cases were down 13 percent last year in the 50 states, Washington, D.C., and U.S. territories.]]></description>
