v SC: 128323
COA: 251402
Wayne CC: 02-011466-01
LAMARR ABDUL BARRON,
Defendant-Appellee.
_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the March 22, 2005
judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(G)(1), in
lieu of granting leave to appeal, we VACATE the judgment of the Court of Appeals and
REMAND this case to the Court of Appeals for reconsideration in light of People v Bell,
473 Mich 275 (2005). The Court of Appeals is also directed to reconsider its decision as
to the admission of testimony regarding the content of an anonymous tip. Because the
claim of error was not preserved by a timely objection, it must be reviewed for plain error
affecting the defendant’s substantial rights. People v Carines, 460 Mich 750 (1999). We
further VACATE the portion of the Court of Appeals opinion concerning an error in
sentencing scoring since a correction in the scoring of OV 12 will not afford relief to
defendant.
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.
