  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the May 7, 2015
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered. We DIRECT the parties to file
  supplemental briefs, within 28 days of the date of this order, addressing whether the
  plaintiffs’ claims are barred by the exclusive remedy provision of the Worker’s Disability
  Compensation Act (WDCA). See MCL 418.131(1); Harris v Vernier, 242 Mich. App.
306, 316 (2000) (exclusive remedy provision of the WDCA implicates subject matter
  jurisdiction and may be raised at any time).

        The application for leave to appeal remains pending.

                           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.
