Opinion
No. 120565.
October 22, 2002.
COA: 226937, Houghton CC: 96-009565-DM
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal from the August 21, 2001 decision of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302, in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we VACATE the judgment of the Court of Appeals as it pertains to the distribution of pension benefits that accrued before the marriage and after the divorce as it did not analyze this matter in accord with Reeves v Reeves, 226 Mich. App. 490 (1997), and MCL 552.18(1). We REMAND this case to the Court of Appeals for reconsideration in light of Reeves, and, should the Court of Appeals find it necessary, for further remand to the trial court.
Cavanagh and Kelly, JJ., would deny leave to appeal.
