COA: 241872, Wayne CC: 01-108243-CL
On order of the Court, the motion for immediate consideration and the motion to waive transcript requirement are considered, and they are GRANTED. The application for leave to appeal from the June 26, 2002 decision of the Court of Appeals, denying a stay of the order enforcing the arbitration award, and the motion to stay the enforcement are considered. In lieu of granting leave to appeal, we DIRECT the award be stayed in part. The school district need not comply with the requirement of the arbitration award to return the discharged employee to work pending resolution of the appeal in the Court of Appeals. The school district is to forthwith satisfy outstanding wages including the back pay up to the date of this stay order. In addition, the school district is directed to place the discharged employee on paid leave status pending the resolution of the appeal in the Court of Appeals. In all other respects, the application is DENIED.
