  _________________________________________/ 


         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the October 31, 2005
  judgment 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 and the miscellaneous motions are DENIED.

        KELLY, J., would grant leave to appeal.




                          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.
