_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the February 20, 2014
judgment of the Court of Appeals is considered, and it is GRANTED, limited to the issue
whether the plaintiff’s claim for legal malpractice accrued at the time the defendants
discontinued the provision of generalized legal services to the plaintiff and whether those
services were “the matters out of which the claim for malpractice arose” under MCL
600.5838, see Levy v Martin, 463 Mich 478 (2001).
The State Bar of Michigan Professional Ethics Committee is invited to file a brief
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.
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.
