On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the September 11, 2012
judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral
argument on whether to grant the application or take other action. MCR 7.302(H)(1).
The parties shall submit briefs within 42 days of the date of this order addressing whether
the Court of Appeals erred when it concluded that the plaintiff suffered a compensable
injury; whether it misapplied Sutter v Biggs, 377 Mich 80 (1966); and whether its
decision is contrary to Henry v Dow Chemical Co, 473 Mich 63 (2005).
The Michigan Association for Justice and Michigan Defense Trial Counsel, Inc.
are invited to file briefs amicus curiae. Other 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.
