                                                                                                              2

      On order of the Court, the motion for immediate consideration is GRANTED.
The application for leave to appeal the June 25, 2014 order of the Court of Appeals is
considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the question presented
should be reviewed by this Court. The motions to waive the requirements of MCR
7.209(A) and for stay are DENIED.

                        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.
