_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the October 25, 2013
order of the Court of Appeals is considered. We DIRECT appellate counsel, Paul
Stablein, to file a supplemental brief addressing the reason(s) for his failure to file in the
trial court a timely motion to withdraw the defendant’s plea, and/or his failure to file in
the Court of Appeals, on direct review, a delayed application for leave to appeal within
the deadlines set forth in MCR 7.205(F), despite being appointed as counsel on May 7,
2009. Counsel shall file the supplemental brief within 28 days of the date of this order.
The application for leave to appeal remains pending.
I, Larry S. Royster, Clerk of the Michigan Supreme Court, certify that the
