  C’QUAN MICHAEL HINTON,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

        On order of the Court, the applications for leave to appeal the October 22, 2020
  judgment of the Court of Appeals are considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral
  argument on the applications. MCR 7.305(H)(1).

         The appellants shall each file a supplemental brief addressing whether the lower
  courts erred by holding that the suppressed October 16, 2007 interview transcript was not
  material to their guilt such that they were not entitled to relief under Brady v Maryland,
  373 US 83, 87 (1963), and People v Chenault, 495 Mich 142, 149-150, 155 (2014).
                                                                                                               2

Additionally, appellant Hinton shall address his claim of ineffective assistance of trial
counsel. The appellants’ briefs shall be filed by September 27, 2021, with no extensions
except upon a showing of good cause. In the briefs, citations to the record must provide
the appendix page numbers as required by MCR 7.312(B)(1). The appellee shall file a
supplemental brief within 21 days of being served with each of the appellant’s briefs. A
reply, if any, must be filed by each appellant within 14 days of being served with the
appellee’s brief. The parties should not submit mere restatements of their application
papers.

       The total time allowed for oral argument shall be 50 minutes: 30 minutes for the
appellants, to be divided at their discretion, and 20 minutes for the appellee. MCR
7.314(B)(2).

                         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.
