  KEITH BERNARD SMITH,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the June 27, 2016 order
  of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded
  that the question presented should be reviewed by this Court.

        WILDER, J., did not participate because he was on the Court of Appeals panel.




                           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.
