 MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL

 SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION

v

 MTT Docket No. 24-003576

Township Of Troy,

Respondent.

ORDER DENYING JOINT STIPULATION FOR ENTRY OF CONSENT JUDGMENT

The Tribunal has reviewed the case file and the stipulation, filed on March 6, 2025, and 

finds that: the parties have stipulated to true cash and/or assessed value that does not 

appear to be in compliance with MCL 211.27a(1), which states that "property shall be 

assessed at 50% of its true cash value . . . ." Id. See also MCL 205.737. Therefore,

IT IS ORDERED that the Parties’ Joint 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. However, if the new stipulation is filed within 14 days of the issuance 

of this Order, no additional filing fee is required.
