Opinion

On Rehearing.

Per Curiam.

On the basis of the decision of the United States Supreme Court in Avery v. Midland County (1968), 390 US 474 (88 S Ct 1114, 20 L Ed 2d 45), the majority opinion of this Court in this case reported at 9 Mich App 349 is reversed and Const 1963, art 7, § 7, is declared unconstitutional under the Constitution of the United States as interpreted by Avery.

A review of the mandatory guidelines prescribed by PA 1966, No 261, § 4(a) through (h) (CL 1948, §46.404 [Stat Ann 1968 Cum Supp § 5.359(4)]), convinces us that they meet Federal standards of apportionment and that they are reasonable and proper. We so hold.
