  ____________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the motion to file a brief amicus curiae and the motions for
  immediate consideration are GRANTED. The application for leave to appeal the August
  23, 2011 order of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because we are
  not persuaded that the question presented should be reviewed by this Court. The motion
  for stay is DENIED.




                            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.
