We do not retain jurisdiction. VIVIANO, J., did not participate due to a familial relationship with the presiding circuit court judge in this case. 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. October 17, 2019 s1010 Clerk
