Leave to Appeal Denied October 16, 1998.
Leave to file a brief amicus curiae is granted.
Reported below: 223 Mich. App. 349.
I would grant leave to appeal. Robinson v. Chrysler Corp, 139 Mich. App. 449 (1984), holds that an injury arising out of the termination of an employee is not compensable. The holding in the present case results in the anomalous consequence of giving an employer more incentive to terminate an employee than to take disciplinary measures short of termination.
Public policy considerations suggest avoidance of such an untoward result unless legislatively foreclosed. I would grant leave to appeal.
