  GENERAL MOTORS CORPORATION,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the January 20, 2011
  order of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), we
  REMAND this case to the Workers’ Compensation Appellate Commission (WCAC) for
  additional analysis of the defendant’s argument related to the application of MCL
  418.361(1). The WCAC erred in summarily rejecting the defendant’s contention that an
  evaluation was required pursuant to Lofton v AutoZone, Inc, 482 Mich 1005 (2008). If it
  is determined that the plaintiff is only partially disabled, then a calculation of wage loss
  benefits must be made pursuant to MCL 418.361(1), and the WCAC should in that event
  modify the plaintiff’s award accordingly.

         We do not retain jurisdiction.

         HATHAWAY, J., would grant leave to appeal.




                           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.
