  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the July 12, 2011 and
  August 16, 2011 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.




                          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.
