  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the July 3, 2013 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).

                      foregoing is a true and complete copy of the order entered at the direction of the Court.
