  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the motion for leave to file brief amicus curiae is
  GRANTED. The application for leave to appeal the November 15, 2011 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.




                          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.
