Opinion

Docket No. 154085.

10-05-2016

In re REQUEST FOR ADVISORY OPINION REGARDING CONSTITUTIONALITY OF 2016 PA 249.


Order

By order of July 20, 2016, the Governor and any member of the House or Senate was invited to file briefs regarding this request for an advisory opinion. In addition, the Court requested the Attorney General to submit separate briefs arguing both sides of the questions presented in the July 20, 2016 order. On order of the Court, the briefs having been received, the request by the Governor for an advisory opinion on the constitutionality of Section 152b contained in 2016 PA 249 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.
