Lansing, Michigan October 20, 2006 Clifford W. Taylor,

Chief Justice 130244 Michael F. Cavanagh

Elizabeth A. Weaver Marilyn Kelly Maura D. Corrigan Robert P. Young, Jr. PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, Stephen J. Markman, Plaintiff-Appellee, Justices v SC: 130244

COA: 265346 Oakland CC: 2003-192859-FH ANDREW JOSEPH CASCHERA,

Defendant-Appellant. _________________________________________/

On order of the Court, the application for leave to appeal the November 4, 2005 order of the Court of Appeals is considered and, pursuant to MCR 7.302(G)(1), in lieu of granting leave to appeal, we VACATE the judgment of sentence and REMAND this case to the Oakland Circuit Court for resentencing. Under People v Johnson , 474 Mich 96 (2006), the trial court erred in its scoring of OV 11. Although the defendant entered a plea agreement pursuant to People v Cobbs , 443 Mich 276 (1993), to be sentenced at the bottom of the guidelines range, which was then believed to be 84 months, that was not the correct guidelines minimum in light of Johnson , supra . Because the defendant’s sentence was based on an inaccurate calculation of the guidelines range, he is entitled to be resentenced. Johnson , 474 Mich at 103.

W EAVER and C ORRIGAN , JJ., would deny leave to appeal.

I, Corbin R. Davis, Clerk of the Michigan Supreme Court, certify that the foregoing is a true and complete copy of the order entered at the direction of the Court. October 20, 2006 _________________________________________ s1017 Clerk
