John F Diver, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL. Petitioner, SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION v MOAHR Docket No. 26-000831 Emmett Township, Respondent. MOTION Requesting that the RESPONDENT be held in Default. On June 09,2026 the Respondent, Emmett Township, filed an “Answer” to my Petition, Case MOAHR Docket No. 26-000831. This answer was not presented to the Petitioner, John Diver, nor is there any indication that a “Proof of Service” was provided to the Michigan Tax Tribunal as required by MTT Rule 227(12). The petitioner is not fully familiar with the term “Notice of Filing” but assumes it to mean that the petition has been verified and conforms to applicable MTT Rules. This oversight on the part of the Respondent eliminated the Petitioner's possibility of responding to the obtuse answer. Therefore, the Respondent, Emmett Township, should be held in default for failure to file his /her answer with the Petitioner or a “Proof of Service” with the Michigan Tax Tribunal.
