Before the Entire Bench.

ORDER

On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal of Willie Hagood is hereby denied, for the reasons that defendant and appellant has failed to persuade the Court that he has a meritorious basis for appeal or that the decision of the Court of Appeals, 37 Mich.App. 440, 194 N.W.2d 715, was clearly erroneous.

On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal of Robert Hagood is hereby granted. His sentence of 14 to 15 years is vacated and the case is remanded to the recorder's court for the City of Detroit for the sole purpose of resentencing in the light of People v. Tanner, 387 Mich. 683, 199 N.W.2d 202 (July 26, 1972).

The motion by defendants and appellants for appellate counsel is considered and the same is hereby denied.
