Prior report: Mich.App., 2011 WL 2519082.
Order
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the June 23, 2011 judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is GRANTED. The parties shall include among the issues to be briefed: (1) whether the Court of Appeals erred in remanding this case to the trial court for further proceedings regarding the amount of incurred expenses for attendant care from November 7, 2006, to November 18, 2009, after finding that the trial court clearly erred in awarding attendant care benefits to the plaintiff without requiring sufficient documentation to support the daily and weekly hours underlying the award; (2) whether the plaintiff presented sufficient proofs at trial to support the trial court's award of attendant care benefits for the period before November 7, 2006; (3) whether activities performed by Katherine Douglas constituted attendant care under MCL 500.3107(1)(a) or replacement services under MCL 500.3107(1)(c); and (4) whether the trial court clearly erred in awarding attendant care benefits at the rate of $40 per hour.
