On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the November 30, 2017 judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral argument on the application. MCR 7.305(H)(1). The appellant shall file a supplemental brief within 42 days of the date of this order, addressing: (1) whether MCL 722.633(5), which criminalizes making a false report of felony child abuse, applies to non-mandatory reporters; (2) whether the phrase "intentionally makes a false report of child abuse or neglect" (emphasis added) is broad enough to encompass a circumstance in which a child is intentionally enlisted for the purpose of falsely accusing another of abuse or neglect, see MCL 750.411a ; United States v. Giles , 300 U.S. 41 , 48-49, 57 S.Ct. 340 , 81 L.Ed. 493 (1937) ; and (3) whether MCL 722.633(5) must be read in light of the common-law doctrine of the innocent agent. See Const. 1963, art. 3, § 7. In addition to the brief, the appellant shall electronically file an appendix conforming to MCR 7.312(D)(2). In the brief, citations to the record must provide the appendix page numbers as required by MCR 7.312(B)(1). The appellee shall file a supplemental brief within 21 days of being served with the appellant's brief. The appellee shall also electronically file an appendix, or in the alternative, stipulate to the use of the appendix filed by the appellant. A reply, if any, must be filed by the appellant within 14 days of being served with the appellee's brief. The parties should not submit mere restatements of their application papers.
