  MATTHEW SCOTT REYNOLDS and
  JODY LYNN ADAMS,
             Defendants-Appellees.
  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the December 22, 2009
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in
  lieu of granting leave to appeal, we VACATE the judgments of the Court of Appeals and
  the Ionia Circuit Court, and we REMAND this case to the trial court for reconsideration
  in light of McCormick v Carrier (Docket No. 136738), 487 Mich ___ (July 31, 2010).

        CORRIGAN, J. (concurring).

         I concur in the order remanding for reconsideration under McCormick v Carrier,
  487 Mich ___ (2010), because the majority opinion in McCormick altered the criteria for
  determining whether an injured plaintiff meets the serious impairment threshold in MCL
  500.3135(7). But I reiterate my disagreement with the McCormick majority’s analysis
  for the reasons expressed in Justice MARKMAN’s dissent in that case, which I joined. I
  continue to conclude that the McCormick majority misinterpreted MCL 500.3135(7), thus
  encouraging litigation that is expressly prohibited by the motor vehicle no-fault insurance
  act and upsetting the Legislature’s clear intent to provide Michigan citizens with timely,
  automatic benefits for injuries sustained in auto accidents while avoiding costly,
  unnecessary litigation.

        YOUNG, J. (concurring).

         Although I recognize that this Court’s decision in McCormick v Carrier, 487 Mich
  ___ (2010), now controls when a person may recover in tort for non-economic loss under
  the no-fault act, I continue to adhere to the position stated in Justice MARKMAN’s
  dissenting opinion in that case, which I joined.



                           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.
                           October 26, 2010                    _________________________________________
