FLINT (AP) - A judge has denied a motion to require the state to file more detailed allegations against two state employees charged criminally in Flint's water crisis.
The Flint Journal reports that Wednesday's decision by 67th District Judge Jennifer Manley clears the way for probable cause hearings to proceed for Department of Environmental Quality regulators Stephen Busch and Michael Prysby.
They are among eight state employees facing misconduct and other charges over the lead-contaminated water.
Prysby attorney Richard Hillman says it has been "very difficult" to ascertain what his client allegedly did.
But special counsel Todd Flood, who Attorney General Bill Schuette appointed to lead the Flint investigation, says he has been forthcoming.
The preliminary exams for Busch and Prysby originally were scheduled to begin next week.
