  ________________________________________/

         On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the May 19, 2015
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.305(H)(1), in
  lieu of granting leave to appeal, we REVERSE that part of the Court of Appeals
  judgment that found the evidence insufficient to convict the defendant of possession of
  methamphetamine, MCL 333.7403(2)(b)(i), and we REINSTATE that conviction, for the
  reasons stated in the Court of Appeals dissenting opinion.

                           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.
