ITALO PARISE, Brian K. Zahra,
Plaintiff-Appellant, Justices

v SC: 144072
DETROIT ENTERTAINMENT, L.L.C.,
Defendant-Appellee.

_________________________________________/

On order of the Court, the motion for full-Court review of the motion to disqualify
Chief Justice YOUNG and Justice MARKMAN is considered, and it is GRANTED. Upon
full-Court consideration of the plaintiff’s motion, we DENY the motion for the reason
that no justice is persuaded that there is any ground for the disqualification of Chief
Justice YOUNG or Justice MARKMAN.

YOUNG, C.J. (not participating). I do not participate in the order or the full
Court’s decision on the motion for disqualification of another justice, pursuant to MCR
2.003(D)(3)(b), for the reasons stated in my November 25, 2009, dissent from the rule’s
promulgation 1 and in my March 31, 2010, statement of nonparticipation in a similar
motion in Pellegrino v Ampco Systems Parking. 2 I believe that rule to have serious
constitutional flaws.

1
See 485 Mich cxxx, clxvii-clxxxv (YOUNG, J., dissenting).
2
485 Mich 1134, 1155-1165 (2010) (YOUNG, J., not participating).

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.
