  _________________________________________/

        On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the June 28, 2012
  judgment 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.

        CAVANAGH, J., concurs in the denial of leave but would reinstate the trial court’s
  award of attorney fees and costs and bring an end to this protracted litigation.




                           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 22, 2012                    _________________________________________
