  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the July 31, 2012
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is GRANTED. The parties shall
  include among the issues to be briefed: (1) whether the defendant city’s zoning code
  ordinance, which prohibits any use that is contrary to federal law, state law, or local
  ordinance, is subject to state preemption by the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act
  (MMMA), MCL 333.26421 et seq.; and (2) if so, whether the MMMA is subject to
  federal preemption by the federal Controlled Substances Act (CSA), 21 USC 801 et seq.,
  on either impossibility or obstacle conflict preemption grounds. See 21 USC 903.

        Persons or groups interested in the determination of the issues presented in this
  case may move the Court for permission to file briefs amicus curiae.

                          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.
