_________________________________________/
By order of October 17, 2007, the application for leave to appeal the March 23,
2006 judgment of the Court of Appeals was held in abeyance pending the decision in
Braverman v Garden City Hospital (Docket Nos. 134445-6). On order of the Court, the
case having been decided on April 9, 2008, 480 Mich 1159 (2008), the application is
again considered, and in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we VACATE the judgment of
the Court of Appeals and we REMAND this case to the Court of Appeals for
reconsideration in light of Washington v Sinai Hospital of Greater Detroit, 478 Mich 412
(2007), and Braverman, supra.
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.
