                                  AMENDMENT TO ORDER:

         On order of the Court, this Court’s September 11, 2009 order is amended so that
  the penultimate sentence reads as follows:

        The parties shall include among the issues to be briefed whether venue was
        properly laid in Saginaw County with respect to the defendant’s solicitation
        to commit murder and witness intimidation charges, whether the defendant
        is entitled to retrial on the false pretenses and witness intimidation charges
        in the event that his conviction for solicitation to commit murder is not
        reinstated, and the relevance, if any of the defendant’s statement to the trial
        court, over his counsel’s objection, that he wanted the cases tried together.
  The motion for clarification is DENIED as moot.

                          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.
