  SCOTT ALLEN SMITH,
             Defendant-Appellant.
  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the motion to strike is DENIED. The application for leave
  to appeal the May 26, 2017 order of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is
  DENIED, because the defendant has failed to meet the burden of establishing entitlement
  to relief under MCR 6.508(D).




                          I, Larry S. Royster, Clerk of the Michigan Supreme Court, certify that the
                    foregoing is a true and complete copy of the order entered at the direction of the Court.
