  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the June 6, 2013
  judgment of the Court of Appeals and the application for leave to appeal as
  cross-appellants are considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral argument on
  whether to grant the application for leave to appeal or take other action.
  MCR 7.302(H)(1). The parties shall submit supplemental briefs within 42 days of the
  date of this order addressing whether the contracts and limited power of attorney at issue
  are void or merely voidable, and whether the plaintiffs are required to establish actual
  damages to recover on their breach of contract and fraud/misrepresentation claims. The
  parties should not submit mere restatements of their application papers.

        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.

        The application for leave to appeal as cross-appellants remains pending.

                           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.
