  ROBERT DAREN HALE,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the motion to add new grounds is GRANTED. The
  application for leave to appeal the April 10, 2018 judgment of the Court of Appeals is
  considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the questions presented
  should be reviewed by this Court. The motion for an evidentiary hearing is DENIED.




                            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.
