The parties shall include among the issues to be briefed whether the Court of Appeals majority correctly ruled that MCR 2.116(C)(10) permits a trial court to deny summary disposition to the moving party even though the opposing party ‍​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​​​​​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌‍did not present countervailing evidence, on the ground that judgment is not apрropriate under MCR 2.116(G)(4).
