  _____________________________________/

         By order of October 5, 2016, the application for leave to appeal the November 24,
  2015 judgment of the Court of Appeals was held in abeyance pending the decision in
  People v Comer (Docket No. 152713). On order of the Court, the case having been
  decided on June 23, 2017, 500 Mich ___ (2017), the application is again considered, and
  it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the questions presented should be
  reviewed by this Court.




                          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.
