Order Michigan Supreme Court Lansing, Michigan February 13, 2019 Bridget M. McCormack, Chief Justice 159103 & (12)(13) David F. Viviano, Chief Justice Pro Tem Stephen J. Markman Brian K. Zahra PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, Richard H. Bernstein Plaintiff-Appellee, Elizabeth T. Clement Megan K. Cavanagh, Justices v SC: 159103 COA: 347523 Wayne CC: 17-007369-FC MARC CURTIS MINTER, Defendant-Appellant. _________________________________________/ On order of the Court, the motions for immediate consideration and to waive transcript requirement are GRANTED. The application for leave to appeal the February 6, 2019 order of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is DENIED, because, while the assistance of a forensic pathologist may be a required component of the defense in this case, see People v Kennedy,
502 Mich 206(2018), Ake v Oklahoma,
470 US 68(1985), the unavailability of the properly noticed forensic pathologist, Dr. Karl Williams, is only speculative at this point. The motion to stay is DENIED. 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. February 13, 2019 t0226 Clerk
