  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the August 4, 2005 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.

        KELLY, J., would hold this case in abeyance for People v Drohan, lv gtd 472 Mich
  881 (2005).




                           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.
