By order of February 5, 2016, the parties were directed to file supplemental briefs

supplemental briefs having been received, the application for leave to appeal the May 7,
2015 judgment of the Court of Appeals is again considered and, pursuant to MCR
7.305(H)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we VACATE the judgment of the Court
of Appeals and we REMAND this case to the Wayne Circuit Court for the court to
