ORDER EXTENDING TIME FOR PETITIONER TO CURE DEFAULT 

 

The Tribunal has considered the file in this case and finds that it entered an order 

holding Petitioner in default on August 18, 2025, because Petitioner filed an incomplete, 

unsigned Small Claims Division petition for an appeal pending in the Entire Tribunal 

Division, and failed to pay the full amount required for the petition filing fee.1 Here, 

Petitioner selected the Entire Tribunal Division when e-filing but filed a Small Claims 

Division petition. Information on Tribunal rules, forms, and filing fees are available 

online at www.michigan.gov/taxtrib. Petitioner was required to cure the default within 14 

days, has had ample time to comply, and yet has failed to respond or submit the 

required filings. Though the Tribunal finds an extension of time to cure the default 

appropriate, Petitioner’s failure to comply with Tribunal orders and its Rules of Practice 

and Procedure has established a history of deliberate delay that would justify the 

dismissal of the case for failure to timely comply with this order.2 

 

Therefore, 

 

IT IS ORDERED that the time for Petitioner to cure the default is EXTENDED. 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED Petitioner must complete the following to cure the default: 

 

(1) file and serve an Entire Tribunal petition on the Tribunal and the six parties in 

interest,3 (2) pay the remaining filing fee required for the filing of the petition,4 (3) file a 

Motion to Set Aside Default, and (3) pay the $50.00 fee required for the filing of the 

motion. Unfortunately, the payment of the required filing fee may not be made via e-

filing. 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED the petition shall note the docket number assigned by the 

Tribunal and specifically address the Tribunal's jurisdiction in the ET petition. 

 

1 The order further stated, “Failure to comply with this order will result in the defaulted party being 

required to file a motion to set aside the default (with appropriate filing fee).”

TTR 237.
