In re Request for ADVISORY OPINION REGARDING CONSTITUTIONALITY OF 2012 PA 348 and 2012 PA 349.

Order

By order of May 3, 2013, the Michigan Solicitor General was invited to file a brief in this case. On order of the Court, the Solicitor General's brief having been received, the request by the Governor for an advisory opinion on the constitutionality of 2012 PA 348 and 2012 PA 349 is again considered, and it is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that granting the request would be an appropriate exercise of the Court's discretion.

MARKMAN, J., would deny for the reasons set forth in the brief requested by this Court and entitled “Views of the State of Michigan.”
