      On order of the Court, the motions for immediate consideration are GRANTED.
The application for leave to appeal prior to decision by the Court of Appeals (Docket No.
144686) is DENIED as moot. The application for leave to appeal before consideration by
the Court of Appeals (Docket No. 144691) is treated as an application for leave to appeal
the March 7, 2012 judgment of the Court of Appeals. The applications for leave to
appeal the March 7, 2012 judgment of the Court of Appeals (Docket Nos. 144691 and
144768) are considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral argument on Wednesday,
March 21, 2012 at 9:30 a.m. on whether to grant the applications or take other action.
MCR 7.302(H)(1).
