_________________________________________/
By order of September 24, 2007, the application for leave to appeal the January 4,
2007 judgment of the Court of Appeals was held in abeyance pending the decision in
Mullins v St Joseph Mercy Hosp (Docket No. 131879). On order of the Court, the case
having been decided on November 28, 2007, ___ Mich ___ (2007), the application is
again considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(G)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal,
we REVERSE the judgment of the Court of Appeals, REINSTATE the order of the
2
Wayne Circuit Court denying the defendants' motion for summary disposition, and
REMAND this case to the Wayne Circuit Court for further proceedings not inconsistent
with this order and the order in Mullins. In all other respects, leave to appeal is DENIED
because we are not persuaded that the remaining questions 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.
