In her brief on appeal to the Court of Appeals, plaintiff discussed the non-foot injuries and their continuing effect on her life. As a result, plaintiff did not abandon these claims. We REMAND this case to the Wayne Circuit Court for a bifurcated retrial with respect to plaintiff’s uninsured motorist and personal insurance protection benefit claims, the relief defendant requested in its appeal to the Court of Appeals. The testimony of Dr. Richard Pike will not be considered on retrial of either claim. 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.
