Among the issues to be briefed, the parties are specifically directed to address the following: (1) What constitutes "cooperation" for the purpose of MCL 791.234(10), and did defendant's actions satisfy the requirement? (2) Does MCL 791.234(10) contain a temporal limitation on when cooperation must occur? (3) Does MCL 791.234(10) contain a temporal limitation on when a court may make a determination that cooperation occurred? (4) Was People v. Matelic, 249 Mich.App. 1, 641 N.W.2d 252 (2001), properly decided? (5) Should this case be remanded to the Saginaw Circuit Court for an evidentiary hearing to determine whether defendant has cooperated within the meaning of MCL 791.234(10)?
