v 

 MTT Docket No. 26-000628

City Of Eastpointe,

Respondent.

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

The Tribunal has reviewed the file in the above-captioned case and finds that:

Petitioner has filed a Motion to Withdraw the Petition prior to Respondent filing an 

answer or first responsive motion. 

Therefore,

IT IS ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED.

This order resolves all pending issues and closes the case.

APPEAL RIGHTS

If you disagree with the final decision in this case, you may file a motion for 

reconsideration with the Tribunal or a claim of appeal with the Michigan Court of 

Appeals. 

A motion for reconsideration must be filed with the Tribunal with the required filing fee 

within 21 days from the date of entry of the final decision. Because the final decision 

closes the case, the motion cannot be filed through the Tribunal’s web-based e-filing 

system; it must be filed by mail or personal service. The fee for the filing of such 

motions is $50.00 in the Entire Tribunal and $25.00 in the Small Claims Division, unless 

the Small Claims decision relates to the valuation of property and the property had a 

principal residence exemption of at least 50% at the time the petition was filed or the 

decision relates to the grant or denial of a poverty or disabled veterans exemption and, 

if so, there is no filing fee. You are required to serve a copy of the motion on the 

opposing party by mail or personal service or by email if the opposing party agrees to 

electronic service, and proof demonstrating that service must be submitted with the 

motion. Responses to motions for reconsideration are prohibited and there are no oral 

arguments unless otherwise ordered by the Tribunal.

Alternatively, you may file a claim of appeal with the Michigan Court of Appeals. If the 

claim is filed within 21 days of the entry of the final decision, it is an “appeal of right.” If

Page 2

MTT Docket No. 26-000628

Page 2 of 2

the claim is filed more than 21 days after the entry of the final decision, it is an “appeal 

by leave.” A copy of the claim of appeal must be filed with the Tribunal to certify the 

record on appeal. There is no certification fee.

Motion to Withdraw Entire Tribunal Property Tax Petition 

 

 

Petitioner 24611 Gratiot, LLC, by and through its attorneys, Williams 

Williams Rattner & Plunkett, PC, states as follows for its Motion to Withdraw Entire 

Tribunal Property Tax Petition. 

 

1. 

Petitioner filed its Petition on April 16, 2026. The Notice of Docket 

Number was issued on May 27, 2026. As of the date of this Motion, the Petition has 

not been served on Respondent. 

 

2. 

Petitioner wishes to withdraw the Petition. It has come to Petitioner’s 

attention that the 2026 assessment was addressed in an appeal filed for 2025. 

 

3. 

Under TTR 237(4), Petitioner may withdraw its Petition before an 

answer or responsive motion is filed. In this instance, the Petition has not even been

Page 2

served on Respondent, so there could not have been an answer or responsive motion. 

Accordingly, TTR 237(4) allows Petitioner to withdraw the Petition. 

Wherefore, Petitioner respectfully requests that this honorable Tribunal enter 

an Order dismissing Petitioner’s Petition.

Gratiot,

by and through

attorneys, 

Williams, 

Williams, Rattner & Plunkett, PC, states as follows for its Entire Tribunal Property 

Tax Petition. 

The Parties 

1. 

Petitioner 24611 Gratiot, LLC, is a domestic limited liability company 

with its registered offices located at 24620 Schoenherr Road, Warren, Michigan 

48089.

Page 2

The Subject Property 

3. 

Petitioner owns property identified as Parcel No. 02-14-30-204-050 and 

commonly known as 24611 Gratiot Ave., Eastpointe, Michigan 48021 (the “Subject 

Property”). 

4. 

To Petitioner's knowledge, the Subject Property was designed to be used 

for commercial purposes. 

It is presently vacant. 

5. 

The Subject Property is located in Macomb County and is within the 

Eastpointe Community Schools district. 

6. 

Respondent possesses jurisdiction to assess and collect property taxes 

for the Subject Property. 

The 2026 Assessment 

7. 

For the 2026 tax year, Respondent classified the Subject Property as 

commercial real property. 

8. 

For the 2026 tax year, Respondent established the Subject Property’s 

assessment for property taxes as follows: 

True Cash Value 

Assessed Value 

Taxable Value 

$1,264,200 

$632,100 

$486,736 

A copy of the Notice of Assessment is attached to this Petition as Exhibit A. 

9. 

Petitioner contends that a lawful assessment of the Subject Property for 

the 2026 tax year cannot exceed the following amounts:

Page 3

11. 

This Petition presents issues involving the Subject Property’s valuation 

for property tax assessment purposes. 

Petitioner does not believe that this Petition 

presents any issues arising out of “additions” or “losses” as the General Property Tax 

Act, MCL 211.1 et seq. (the “GPTA”), defines those terms, but reserves its right to 

assert issues involving losses should information supporting such issues become 

available. 

12. 

The Subject Property's 2026 assessment 

(a) violates the Michigan 

Constitution, the GPTA, and other Michigan law, (b) is based on erroneous principles 

and information, (c) is based on the misapplication of valuation principles, and (d) 

otherwise violates Petitioner’s rights. 

13. 

Petitioner does not assert that the Subject Property's 2026 assessment 

is 

not 

uniform 

aside 

from 

the 

lack 

of uniformity 

resulting 

from Respondent 

overestimating the Subject Property's values. 

Conclusion and Request for Relief 

WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this honorable Tribunal 

enter judgment revising the Subject Property's 2026 assessment to amounts that do 

not exceed the values set forth in Paragraph 9 of this Petition and granting Petitioner 

all other relief to which it is entitled under Michigan law.
