v SC: 155989
COA: 330503
Lenawee CC: 15-017428-FH
RODNEY CORTEZ HALL,
Defendant-Appellant.
_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the April 25, 2017
judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered. We DIRECT the Lenawee County
Prosecutor to answer the application for leave to appeal within 28 days after the date of
this order, addressing whether the trial court erred in assigning 10 points to Offense
Variable 19 (interference with the administration of justice) on the basis of the
defendant’s relocation to Mississippi eight months after the offense and two months
before the victim disclosed the offense to police. See People v Hershey, 303 Mich App
330 (2013).
The application for leave to appeal remains pending.
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.
