Opinion

By order of December 23, 2015, the application for leave to appeal the September 9, 2014 judgment of the Court of Appeals was held in abeyance pending the decision in In re Jones (Docket No. 152595). On order of the Court, the order granting leave to appeal having been vacated in In re Jones, 499 Mich 862 (2016), the application is again considered. We direct the Clerk to schedule oral argument on whether to grant the application or take other action. MCR 7.305(H)(1). The parties shall file supplemental briefs within 42 days of the date of this order addressing: (1) whether the family court lacked subject matter jurisdiction to issue the order compelling the appellant to submit to random drug testing as part of her son’s juvenile delinquency proceeding, see MCL 712A.6; Jackson City Bank & Trust Co v Fredrick, 271 Mich 538, 544-545 (1935); (2) whether Michigan recognizes any other exceptions to application of the collateral bar rule, including (a) lack of opportunity for meaningful appellate review of the January 14, 2011 drug testing order; or (b) the appellant’s irretrievable surrender of constitutional guarantees by complying with the drug testing order, see Maness v Meyers, 419 US 449; 95 S Ct 584; 42 L Ed 2d 574 (1975); and (3) whether the appellant has properly preserved question (2) for appellate review. The parties should not submit mere restatements of their application papers or their previously filed supplemental briefs.

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.
