  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the June 16, 2010 and
  June 23, 2010 orders of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because
  we are not persuaded that the questions presented should be reviewed by this Court. The
  motion for sanctions is GRANTED, based on the plaintiff’s inflammatory and
  unsubstantiated accusations regarding the conduct of the defendants and the Court of
  Appeals. The plaintiff is ordered to pay this Court $250 within 28 days of the date of this
  order.




                            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.
