ORDER
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the December 28, 2023 judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral argument on the application. MCR 7.305(H)(1). The parties shall file supplemental briefs in accordance with MCR 7.312(E), addressing whether the Court of Appeals erred in: (1) holding that the plaintiff successfully established that the defendants violated the Takings Clause of the Michigan Constitution, Const 1963, art 10, § 2; and (2) directing the Ingham Circuit Court to calculate the "surplus" owed on the property by reference to the value of the property less what the plaintiff owed on it when the foreclosure occurred.
We direct the Clerk to schedule the oral argument in this case for the same future session of the Court when it will hear oral argument in Jackson v Southfield Neighborhood Revitalization Initiative (Docket No. 166320).
The Michigan Department of Treasury, Michigan Association of County Treasurers, Michigan Association of Counties, Michigan Townships Association, Michigan Municipal League, Institute for Justice, AARP and AARP Foundation, The Buckeye Institute, and Center for Constitutional Jurisprudence are invited to file briefs amicus curiae. Other persons or groups interested in the determination of the issues presented in this case may move the Court for permission to file briefs amicus curiae.
