GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Ryan K Plew, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Petitioner, SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION v MTT Docket No. 24-004226 Marion Township, Presiding Judge Respondent. Patricia L. Halm ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S MOTION TO SET ASIDE DEFAULT On February 5, 2025, Petitioner filed a motion requesting the Tribunal set aside the default entered in this case on January 8, 2025. Respondent has not filed a response to the motion. The Tribunal has considered the motion and the case file and finds that Petitioner was held in default because they filed the wrong petition for the issue being appealed. Petitioner filed the correct petition on January 10, 2025, but failed to sign that petition, and the Tribunal entered an order on January 16, 2025, extending the time to cure the default.1 Petitioner filed a completed and signed petition on January 17, 2025, but the response did not include a motion or proof of service, and the Tribunal again extended the time for Petitioner to cure the default on February 3, 2025. Having now filed the amended petition, motion, and proof of service, Petitioner has complied with the Tribunal’s orders as required by TTR 231. As such, the Tribunal finds good cause to grant the motion and set aside the default. Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner’s Motion to Set Aside Default is GRANTED. This case shall be scheduled for hearing in the normal course of scheduling. Entered: March 12, 2025 By _____________________________ bw PROOF OF SERVICE I certify that a copy of the foregoing was sent on the entry date indicated above to the parties or their attorneys or authorized representatives, if any, utilizing either the mailing or email addresses on file, as provided by those parties, attorneys, or authorized representatives.
