On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the October 2, 2009
order of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in lieu of
granting leave to appeal, we REMAND this case to the Workers’ Compensation
Appellate Commission. On remand, the Workers’ Compensation Appellate Commission
shall clarify the reasons for or modify its award of analgesic treatment of plaintiff’s back
in light of its factual finding that the condition of plaintiff’s back is no longer the result of
her work-related injury. The Workers’ Compensation Appellate Commission shall file its
clarification or modified award with the Clerk of this Court within 56 days of the date of
this order.
We retain jurisdiction.
