ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S MOTION TO SET ASIDE DEFAULT 

 

On December 22, 2025, Petitioner filed a motion requesting the Tribunal set aside the 

default entered in this case on November 7, 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 Petitioner filed a defective proof of service.1 Petitioner timely 

responded but failed to cure the default and the Tribunal entered an order extending the 

time to cure on December 12, 2025. Having now filed the required proof of service for 

the petition, a motion to set aside default, paid the required motion filing fee, and 

submitted proof that the motion was served on Respondent, Petitioner has complied 

with the Tribunal’s orders as required by TTR 237. 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. 

 

 

Entered: January 22, 2026

1 The Tribunal’s November 7, 2025 order provided that “the proof of service indicates that Petitioner has

clerk, the township supervisor or clerk, the county equalization director for any county affected, the county 

clerk for any county affected, the secretary of the local school board, the treasurer of the state of
