_____________________________________/
On order of the Court, the motions for immediate consideration and to add issues
are GRANTED. The application for leave to appeal the September 11, 2019 order of the
Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because the defendant has failed to
meet the burden of establishing entitlement to relief under MCR 6.508(D). The motions
for habeas corpus and for superintending control are DENIED.
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.
