_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the September 20, 2011
order of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not
2
persuaded that the questions presented should be reviewed by this Court. We further
conclude that the application for leave to appeal is frivolous and vexatious. MCR
7.316(D). Plaintiff Patrick McCarthy is ordered to pay the Clerk of this Court $500
within 28 days of the date of this order. We direct the Clerk of this Court not to accept
any further filings from Mr. McCarthy in any non-criminal matter until he has made the
payment required by this order.
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.
