  NEW PRODUCTS CORPORATION,
          Respondent-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the motion for immediate consideration is GRANTED.
  The application for leave to appeal the March 2, 2016 order of the Court of Appeals is
  considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.305(H)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we
  VACATE that part of the Court of Appeals order granting the motion to dismiss the
  appeal, and REMAND this case to the Court of Appeals for plenary consideration as on
  leave granted of whether MCL 211.78k(7) requires payment of the full amount due for all
  tax parcels listed in a judgment of foreclosure as a condition of appeal where the taxpayer
  does not seek to challenge the foreclosures for all of the parcels. If the Court of Appeals
  concludes that MCL 211.78k(7) does not impose such a requirement, it shall reinstate the
  appeal and proceed in accordance with MCR 7.204.

        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.
