  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the August 24, 2011 and
  September 15, 2011 orders 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.




                           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.
