       On order of the Court, the motion for immediate consideration is GRANTED.
The application for leave to appeal the January 16, 2015 order of the Court of Appeals is
considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we
REMAND this case to the Court of Appeals for consideration as on leave granted. The
motion for stay is GRANTED. Trial court proceedings are stayed pending the
completion of this appeal. On motion of a party or on its own motion, the Court of
Appeals may modify, set aside, or place conditions on the stay if it appears that the
appeal is not being vigorously prosecuted or if other appropriate grounds appear.

       We direct the Court of Appeals’ attention to the fact that on October 22, 2014, we
also remanded John Doe 1 v Dep’t of Corrections (COA Docket Nos. 321013, 321756) to
the Court of Appeals for consideration as on leave granted.




                         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.
