  JOHNATHAN LAMAR BURKS,
          Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

         By order of October 30, 2018, the application for leave to appeal the April 3, 2018
  judgment of the Court of Appeals was held in abeyance pending the decisions in People v
  Beck (Docket No. 152934) and People v Dixon-Bey (Docket No. 156746). On order of
  the Court, Beck having been decided on July 29, 2019, 504 Mich ___ (2019), and leave to
  appeal having been denied in Dixon-Bey on July 29, 2019, 504 Mich ___ (2019), the
  application is again considered. Pursuant to MCR 7.305(H)(1), in lieu of granting leave
  to appeal, we VACATE that part of the judgment of the Court of Appeals addressing the
  defendant’s sentence for home invasion, and we REMAND this case to that court for
  reconsideration in light of Beck. 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.

                           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.
