  TIMOTHY THOMAS,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the December 17, 2013
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in
  lieu of granting leave to appeal, we REVERSE the judgment of the Court of Appeals to
  the extent that it affirmed the lower court’s order for the payment of a specific amount of
  restitution, we VACATE the sentence of the Wayne Circuit Court insofar as it ordered
  the defendant to pay restitution in the amount of $35,000, and we REMAND this case to
  the circuit court to conduct an evidentiary hearing to determine the appropriate amount of
  restitution to be paid by the defendant. 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.

         We do not retain jurisdiction.

                           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.
