  _________________________________________/

         By order of November 6, 2013, the application for leave to appeal the February 6,
  2013 order of the Court of Appeals was held in abeyance pending the decision People v
  Eliason (Docket No. 147428). On order of the Court, the case having been decided on
  July 8, 2014, sub nom People v Carp, 496 Mich 440 (2014), the application is again
  considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the question presented
  should be reviewed by this Court.




                          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.
