On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the April 21, 2015 judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral argument on whether to grant the application or take other action. MCR 7.305(H)(1). The parties shall file supplemental briefs within 42 days of the date of this order addressing: (1) whether Wexford Medical Group v City of Cadillac, 474 Mich 192 (2006), correctly held that an institution does not qualify as a "charitable institution" under MCL 211.7o or MCL 211.9 if it offers its charity on a "discriminatory basis"; (2) if so, how "discriminatory basis" should be given proper meaning; (3) the extent to which the relationship between an institution's written policies and its actual distribution of charitable resources is relevant to that definition; and (4) whether, given the foregoing, the petitioner is entitled to a tax exemption. The parties should not submit mere restatements of their application papers.

I, Larry S. Royster, Clerk of the Michigan Supreme Court, certify that the foregoing is a true and complete copy of the order entered at the direction of the Court.
