Summary

In an order in lieu of granting leave to appeal, the court vacated Part III of the Court of Appeals judgment (see e-Journal # 76017 in the 8/25/21 edition), and remanded the case to the Court of Appeals for reconsideration in light of Rott. The court denied plaintiff leave to appeal as cross-appellant in one of these consolidated cases because it was not persuaded that it should review the issue presented.
