  _________________________________________/

        By order of October 5, 2018, the application for leave to appeal the December 28,
  2017 judgment of the Court of Appeals was held in abeyance pending the decision in
  Henderson v Civil Serv Comm (Docket No. 156270). On order of the Court, the case
  having been decided on March 15, 2019, ___ Mich ___ (2019), the application is again
  considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the questions presented
  should be reviewed by this Court.




                          I, Larry S. Royster, 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.
