ORDER DENYING STIPULATION FOR ENTRY OF CONSENT JUDGMENT The Tribunal has reviewed the case file and the Stipulation for Entry of Consent Judgment filed on July 30, 2026 and finds that The Stipulation was filed with a partial filing fee.

Answers are due within 28 days of service of the petition in Entire Tribunal appeals, and within 28 days of the issuance of the notice of docket in Small Claims appeals. See TTR 235 and 281. Because no answer has been filed in this case, the stipulation cannot be entered at this time and must be denied. IT IS ORDERED that the Stipulation for Entry of Consent Judgment is DENIED. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a hearing in this case shall be scheduled in the normal course. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that because this Stipulation for Entry of Consent Judgment is no longer pending before the Tribunal, a new stipulation is required for any future settlement.
