Plaintiff-Appellee,
v SC: 145433
COA: 307480
Wayne CC: 01-003031-01
JUAN WALKER,
Defendant-Appellant.
_________________________________________/
On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the May 21, 2012 order
of the Court of Appeals is considered. We DIRECT the Wayne County Prosecuting
Attorney to answer the application for leave to appeal within 28 days after the date of this
order. The prosecutor shall pay particular attention to the defendant’s contention that his
trial counsel was ineffective for failing to inform him of the prosecutor’s September 26,
2001 offer of a plea bargain to second-degree murder and a sentence agreement of 25 to
50 years. The prosecutor is to address whether the defendant is entitled to relief under
Missouri v Frye, 566 US ___; 132 S Ct 1399; 182 L Ed 2d 379 (2012).
The application for leave to appeal remains pending.
I, Corbin R. Davis, 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.
