  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the September 13, 2012
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is GRANTED. The parties shall
  address: (1) whether a court’s failure to comply with the 7-day notice provision of
  MCL 765.28 bars forfeiture of a bail bond posted by a surety; and (2) whether In re
  Forfeiture of Bail Bond, 276 Mich App 482 (2007), holding that the 7-day notice
  provision is directory rather than mandatory, was correctly decided.

        Persons or groups interested in the determination of the issues presented in this
  case may move the Court for permission to file briefs amicus curiae.




                           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.
