Appointed counsel may file an application for leave to appeal with the Court of Appeals, and/or any appropriate post-conviction motions in the trial court, within 12 months of the date of this order, in accord with the deadlines in effect at the time defendant was denied counsel. MCR 7.205(F)(3), MCR 6.311, and MCR 6.429. Counsel may, but is not required to, include those issues defendant raised in his application for leave to appeal to this Court. In all other respects, leave to appeal is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the questions presented should now be reviewed by this Court.
