          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the October 15, 2015
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral
  argument on whether to grant the application or take other action. MCR 7.305(H)(1).
  The parties shall file supplemental briefs within 42 days of the date of this order
  addressing whether a reasonable jury could determine that the defendant’s conduct was
  “the proximate cause” of plaintiff Kersch Ray’s injuries where the defendant’s actions
  placed the plaintiff in the dangerous situation that resulted in the plaintiff’s injuries.

  Michigan, 497 Mich 363 (2015). The parties should not submit mere restatements of
  their application papers.




                           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.
