CourtMichigan Supreme Court
ORDER

On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal is considered and, pursuant to GCR 1963, 853.2(4), in lieu of leave to appeal, we VACATE defendant-appellant's conviction of conspiracy to deliver heroin because we conclude that the evidence of conspiracy adduced at trial was insufficient to support a conviction of conspiracy to deliver heroin. We also REMAND the matter to the Bay Circuit Court for resentencing on defendant-appellant's conviction of delivery of heroin. At the resentencing, the circuit judge shall, in deciding upon the sentence to be imposed, impose sentence with due regard to defendant-appellant's individual characteristics. In all other respects the application for leave to appeal is considered, and it is DENIED.

We retain no jurisdiction.
