ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S MOTION TO AMEND 

 

ORDER SEVERING 2025 TAX YEAR AND ASSIGNING IT TO 

DOCKET NUMBER 25-002292 

 

On May 5, 2025, Petitioner filed a motion requesting that the Tribunal permit it to amend 

the petition filed in this case to include the 2025 tax year. 

 

On May 27, 2025, Respondent filed a response to the motion. In the response, 

Respondent states that there is insufficient time to conduct discovery or prepare a 

valuation disclosure for the 2025 tax year. As such, the motion should be denied. 

Alternatively, the 2025 tax year should be severed to a separate docket. 

 

The Tribunal has considered the motion and the case file and finds that Petitioner timely 

filed the Motion to Amend, included the necessary information and filing fee, and 

otherwise met all requirements set forth in MCL 205.737 and MCL 205.735a. Due to 

the stage in which this case is at, however, and in the interest of judicial efficiency, the 

2025 tax year shall be severed from this case and assigned to a new docket number. 

Therefore, 

 

IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner’s Motion to Amend is GRANTED. 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner’s assessment appeal for the 2025 tax year is 

SEVERED and ASSIGNED to Docket No. 25-002292. 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner shall file a petition for the 2025 tax year 

within 21 days of the entry of this Order. The petition shall note the docket number 

assigned by the Tribunal for the 2025 tax year and if filed utilizing the Tribunal’s e-filing 

system, must be filed on the assigned 2025 docket as a “Severed Petition.”1 

 

 

1 Alternatively, the petition may be downloaded from the Tribunal’s website and mailed to the Tribunal via 

United States Postal Service at: Michigan Tax Tribunal, PO BOX 30232, Lansing, MI 48909. The petition 

may also be delivered to the Tribunal via overnight carrier (UPS, FedEx, or DHL) at: Michigan Tax 

Tribunal, 2nd Floor MTT, 2407 N. Grand River Avenue, Lansing, MI 48933.
