Sec. 16. Concurrence of judges. Concurrence of 4 judges is necessary to the decision of any case; provided, however, the court in its discretion may assign any case to a commissioner for hearing and final decision, subject to whatever right of review the court by rule may choose to exercise. In matters involving the award of emergency funds under the Crime Victims Compensation Act, the decision of one judge is necessary to award emergency funds.
