  JAVIER ESCOBEDO,
            Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the December 27, 2018
  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 the January 17, 2018 amended judgment of
  sentence, and we REMAND this case to the Cass Circuit Court to reinstate the December
  15, 2017 judgment of sentence. People v Comer, 500 Mich 278 (2017). We further
  VACATE that part of the December 15, 2017 judgment of sentence imposing a $500
  fine. MCL 769.1k(1)(b)(i). MCL 750.520b does not authorize a fine. In all other
  respects, leave to appeal is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the remaining
  questions 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.
