             Defendant-Appellant.
  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the June 8, 2011 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). The motion to
  strike is GRANTED, only to the extent that the briefs filed in this Court by the Attorney
  General are stricken, as those briefs pertain to a different case involving different facts
  and issues than those presented by the defendant’s application in this case.




                           I, Corbin R. Davis, 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.
