People of Michigan v. Dennis Linc Holbrook
Opinion
Order Michigan Supreme Court Lansing, Michigan September 19, 2014 Robert P. Young, Jr., Chief Justice Michael F. Cavanagh Stephen J. Markman 149005 Mary Beth Kelly Brian K. Zahra Bridget M. McCormack David F. Viviano, PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, Justices Plaintiff-Appellee, v SC: 149005 COA: 319565 Berrien CC: 2011-005465-FH DENNIS LINC HOLBROOK, Defendant-Appellant.
_________________________________________/ On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the February 21, 2014 order of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we REMAND this case to the Court of Appeals for consideration of whether the circuit court improperly imposed a fine, in light of our decision in People v Cunningham, 496 Mich 145 (2014), and if so, whether the circuit court’s imposition of a $750 fine constitutes plain error affecting the defendant’s substantial rights. Contrast People v Franklin, 491 Mich 916 (2012), with Johnson v United States, 520 US 461, 467-468 (1997).
We direct the Court of Appeals’ attention to the fact that we have also remanded People v Konopka (Docket No. 149047) to the Court of Appeals for consideration of similar issues. 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.
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.
