PEOPLE of the State of Michigan, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Marguerite Annette PICKENS, Defendant-Appellant.
Order
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the September 24, 2020 judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.305(H)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we REMAND this case to the Wayne Circuit Court for correction of the judgment of sentence to reflect one first-degree murder conviction. The judgment of sentence inaccurately reflects two first-degree murder convictions, notwithstanding that only one person was murdered. See People v. Perry , 497 Mich. 1023, 863 N.W.2d 38 (2015). We further ORDER the trial court to ensure that the corrected judgment of sentence is transmitted to the Department of Corrections. In all other respects, leave to appeal is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the remaining questions presented should be reviewed by this Court.
