  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the August 16, 2005
  order of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because the defendant has
  failed to meet the burden of establishing entitlement to relief under MCR 6.508(D).

         KELLY, J., would hold this case in abeyance for Whorton v Bockting, cert gtd 126
  S Ct 2017 (May 15, 2006) (No. 05-595).




                          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.
