         On order of the Court, the motion for immediate consideration is GRANTED.
  The application for leave to appeal the September 30, 2016 orders 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. The motion for stay is DENIED.




                           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.
