On November 3, 2005, we granted leave to appeal in these cases and ordered that they be argued and submitted to the Court together. 474 Mich 913, 914 (2005). The Director of the Workers' Compensation Agency has now filed motions to intervene, to file a brief, and for oral argument. By order of the Court, the motions are treated as motions to participate as amicus curiae, and they are GRANTED. The Director is invited to file a brief amicus curiae and to present a fifteen minute oral argument at the conclusion of the oral arguments of the parties in these cases.
