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 whether the trial court’s denial of the defendant’s request for a jury instruction on the rebuttable presumption at MCL 780.951(1) of the self-defense act violated the defendant’s rights to present a defense and to a properly instructed jury.
