On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the October 20, 2015
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 7.305(H)(1).
The parties shall file supplemental briefs within 42 days of the date of this order
addressing whether the Court of Appeals erred in concluding that Franks v Delaware,
438 US 154; 98 S Ct 2674; 57 L Ed 2d 667 (1978), limited the trial court’s discretion to
order a hearing on the sufficiency of the affidavit in support of the search warrant. The
parties should not submit mere restatements of their application papers.
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.
