  CORTEZ ROLAND DAVIS,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the motions for immediate consideration and the motion to
  intervene are GRANTED. The application for leave to appeal the November 16, 2011
  order of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in lieu of
  granting leave to appeal, we REMAND this case to the Wayne Circuit Court for
  reconsideration of the defendant’s successive motion for relief from judgment in light of
  Miller v Alabama, 567 US ___; 132 S Ct 2455; 183 L Ed 2d 407 (2012), including the
  question whether Miller applies retroactively to cases that have become final on direct
  review. The motion to withdraw the application, the motion to concur with the request
  for leave, and the motion for stay are DENIED as moot.

        We do not retain jurisdiction.

                            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.
                            September 7, 2012                   _________________________________________
