On order of the Court, the motions for leave to file brief amicus curiae and to file a
responsive brief are GRANTED. The application for leave to appeal the August 25, 2011
judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not
persuaded that the question presented should be reviewed by this Court.
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.
