People of Michigan v. Gregory Carl Washington

Summary

The Court held that the trial court lacked subject-matter jurisdiction to resentence defendant while his application for leave to appeal the remand order was pending in the Supreme Court. Because the resulting sentence was void ab initio, the trial court could recognize and remedy the defect in a successive motion for relief from judgment despite the successive-motion bar. The Court reversed the Court of Appeals and remanded for resentencing consistent with the trial court's 2016 order.
