  BRANDON JAMES HARBISON,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

       On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the January 23, 2018
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral
  argument on whether to grant the application or take other action. MCR 7.305(H)(1).

          The appellant shall file a supplemental brief within 42 days of the date of this
  order addressing whether the prosecution’s admission of Dr. N. Debra Simms’ expert
  testimony that the victim suffered “probable pediatric sexual abuse” violated this Court’s
  decision in People v Peterson, 450 Mich 349 (1995), and, if so, whether this was plain
  error requiring reversal of the defendant’s convictions. In addition to the brief, the
  appellant shall electronically file an appendix conforming to MCR 7.312(D)(2). In the
  brief, citations to the record must provide the appendix page numbers as required by
  MCR 7.312(B)(1). The appellee shall file a supplemental brief within 21 days of being
  served with the appellant’s brief. The appellee shall also electronically file an appendix,
  or in the alternative, stipulate to the use of the appendix filed by the appellant. A reply, if
  any, must be filed by the appellant within 14 days of being served with the appellee’s
  brief. The parties should not submit mere restatements of their application papers.




                            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.
