v SC: 148636
COA: 315914
Midland CC: 11-008207-AR
MICHAEL GOOD,
Defendant-Appellant.
_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the December 6, 2013
order 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.
MARKMAN, J. (dissenting).
I would grant leave to appeal to consider whether the trial court’s decision to
exclude evidence of the complainant’s alleged threat to a prosecution witness, as well as
evidence of the complainant’s alleged statement of an intention to get involved in a fight
on the evening of the criminal incident for which defendant was convicted, violated
defendant’s statutory or constitutional right to present a defense. See Chambers v
Mississippi, 410 US 284 (1973); People v Barrera, 451 Mich 261 (1996); MCL 763.1.
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.
