  _________________________________________/

         By order of January 31, 2017, the prosecuting attorney was directed to answer the
  application for leave to appeal the June 17, 2016 order of the Court of Appeals. On order
  of the Court, the answer having been received, the application for leave to appeal is again
  considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the question 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.
