  THADDEUS MARCELL WILLIAMS,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the motion for immediate consideration is GRANTED.
  The application for leave to appeal the May 24, 2010 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). The motion to vacate conviction
  and sentence is DENIED.

        DAVIS, J., not participating. I recuse myself and am not participating because I
  was on the Court of Appeals panel in this case. See MCR 2.003(B).




                            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.
                            September 9, 2010                   _________________________________________
