      On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the January 21, 2016
judgment 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.

       MARKMAN, J. I would grant leave to appeal for the reasons set forth in my
dissenting statement in Gillette Commercial Operations North America v Dep’t of
Treasury, 499 Mich 960, 961-962 (2016).

      VIVIANO, J., joins the statement of MARKMAN, J.




                        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.
