Plaintiff-Appellant,
v SC: 154209
COA: 330736
Shiawassee CC: 15-007371-CZ
VILLAGE OF OAKLEY,
Defendant-Appellee.
_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the June 23, 2016
judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.305(H)(1), in
lieu of granting leave to appeal, we VACATE as moot Part III of the Court of Appeals
opinion, see 316 Mich App ___ n 1, ___ n 7 (2016), and we REMAND this case to the
Shiawassee Circuit Court for dismissal of the plaintiff’s Freedom of Information Act
claims. See Federated Publications, Inc v Lansing, 467 Mich 98, 101 (2002). In all
other respects, leave to appeal is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the
remaining question presented should be reviewed by this Court. Thus, the award of
attorney fees, costs, and disbursements remains vacated.
I, Larry S. Royster, 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.
