Order

On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the February 28, 2012 judgment of the Court of Appeals and the application for leave to appeal as cross-appellant are considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(H)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we REVERSE that portion of the Court of Appeals judgment that reversed the arbitrator's award of reinstatement and back pay for the grievants. The arbitrator and the Wayne Circuit Court correctly found that MCR 3.106(C) does not preclude relief where the collective bargaining agreement imposes a just cause standard for termination. In all other respects, leave to appeal is DENIED, because we are not persuaded that the remaining questions presented should be reviewed by this Court.
