Justices
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the July 24, 2013 order of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we REMAND this case to the Ingham Circuit Court for consideration of whether the petitioners were given adequate notice prior to the foreclosure of the property. See In re Petition by Wayne Co Treasurer, 478 Mich 1, 8, 10 (2007) (holding that MCL 211.78k(6) deprives the circuit court of jurisdiction to alter a judgment of foreclosure, but that such a rule could, in some cases, violate a person's constitutional right to due process).
We do not retain jurisdiction.
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.
