MICHAEL DAVID MIER v. DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS
LC No. 23-000212-AA
ORDER
Michael F. Gadola, Chief Judge, acting under MCR 7.211(E)(2), orders:
The motion for de novo review or correction is GRANTED to the extent that the February 20, 2024 order issued by this Court contains an incorrect lower court number. The February 20, 2024 order is hereby rescinded and replaced by this order. The motion for de novo review or correction is DENIED in all other respects.
Within 21 days after the date of this order, appellant shall pay to the Clerk of the Court the initial partial filing fee of $138, shall submit a copy of this order with the payment, and shall refile the pleadings which are being returned with this order If appellant timely files the partial fee and refiles the pleadings, appellant generally may not file another new civil appeal or original action in this Court until such time that either the Department of Corrections remits or appellant pays the entire outstanding balance due. MCL 600.2963(8). Failure to comply with this order shall result in the appeal not being filed in this Court and appellant not being responsible for paying the filing fee.
If appellant timely files the partial fee and refiles the pleadings, monthly payments shall be made to the Department of Corrections in an amount of 50 percent of the deposits made to appellant's account until the payments equal the balance due of $237. This amount shall then be remitted to this Court. Again, appellant generally may not file either a new civil appeal or an original action until appellant pays the entire outstanding balance due. MCL 600.2963(8).
The Clerk of this Court shall furnish two copies of this order to appellant and return appellant's pleadings with this order.
