____________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the motion of Detroit Edison Company to exceed the page
limit is GRANTED. The applications for leave to appeal the July 3, 2007 judgment of
4
the Court of Appeals are considered, and they are GRANTED, limited to: (1) whether
“transmission costs” may be included in the power supply cost recovery factor, MCL
460.6j(1)(a) and (b); and (2) whether the Court of Appeals erred in concluding that the
Michigan Public Service Commission’s decision to prohibit recovery of the control
premium that DTE Energy paid to acquire MCN Energy by including the premium in
Detroit Edison’s rates was not supported by competent, material, and substantial evidence
on the whole record. Const 1963, art 6, § 28; In re Complaint of Rovas Against SBC
Michigan, 482 Mich 90 (July 23, 2008) (Docket Nos. 134493, 134500), slip op at 11-12.
We further ORDER that these cases be argued and submitted to the Court together
with the case of Attorney General v Michigan Public Service Commission (Docket
No. 136431), at such future session of the Court as these cases are ready for submission.
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.
