The motion for leave to file reply to answer is DENIED. The reply filed with the motion
is not accepted for filing.
The motion to dismiss pursuant to MCR 7.211(C)(2)(b) is DENIED.
On the Court’s own motion, within 21 days of the Clerk’s certification of this order,
appellants/cross-appellees shall ensure the filing of a stenographer’s certificate with the Clerk of this
Court, showing that appellants/cross-appellees have ordered, on an expedited basis, the transcripts of all
trial court hearings that were not previously transcribed for this case. MCR 7.210(B)(1)(a). After the
court reporter prepares and files the outstanding transcripts, appellants/cross-appellees shall serve copies
of those transcripts on counsel for appellees/cross-appellants. MCR 7.210(F). The time for filing cross-
appellants’ brief on appeal shall begin to run, MCR 7.212(A)(1)(a)(iii), when the court reporter files the
last of the newly-ordered transcripts in the trial court. The failure of appellants/cross-appellees to ensure
the filing of the stenographer’s certificate in accordance with this order may result in the dismissal of the
claim of appeal without further notice to the parties. MCR 7.217.
