v SC: 139566
COA: 292129
Midland CC: 07-003550-FH
TONY DEWAYNE WALKER,
Defendant-Appellant.
_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the July 16, 2009 order
of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded
that the questions presented should be reviewed by this Court. For purposes of MCR
6.502(G)(1), the Court notes that contrary to the Court of Appeals’ characterization of the
defendant’s application as from a motion for relief from judgment, the defendant’s
application sought leave to appeal a judgment of conviction. The application was
properly denied, however, due to the lack of merit in the grounds presented.
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.
