  BURTON DAVID CORTEZ,
           Defendant-Appellant.

  _________________________________________/

          On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the October 27, 2011
  judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in
  lieu of granting leave to appeal, we VACATE that part of the Court of Appeals opinion
  holding that the failure to provide Miranda warnings did not violate the defendant’s Fifth
  Amendment rights. We REMAND this case to the Court of Appeals for reconsideration
  of that issue in light of Howes v Fields, 565 U.S. ___; 132 S. Ct. 1181; 182 L. Ed. 2d 17
  (2012). In all other respects, leave to appeal is DENIED, because we are not persuaded
  that the remaining question presented should be reviewed by this Court.

                           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.
                           May 25, 2012                        _________________________________________
