GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Bonnie R Rolle, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Petitioner, SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION v MTT Docket No. 25-003844 City of Detroit, Presiding Judge Respondent. Patricia L. Halm ORDER OF DISMISSAL The Tribunal has considered the file in this case and finds that Petitioner was placed in default on December 16, 2025, because Petitioner failed to file a copy of the notice giving rise to the appeal, i.e. Principal Residence Exemption denial notice. On January 23, 2026, the Tribunal extended the time for Petitioner to cure the default by an additional 14 days, and they have failed to respond. Petitioner has not complied with either order, and the latter stated that “failure to comply with this order may result in the dismissal of the case” and referenced Grimm v Dep’t of Treasury.1 In Grimm, the Michigan Court of Appeals summarized factors that the Tribunal should consider before imposing the sanction of dismissal. Those factors are: (1) whether the violation was wilful or accidental; (2) the party's history of refusing to comply with previous court orders; (3) the prejudice to the opposing party; (4) whether there exists a history of deliberate delay; (5) the degree of compliance with other parts of the court's orders; (6) attempts to cure the defect; and (7) whether a lesser sanction would better serve the interests of justice.2 Here, Petitioner’s failure to comply with multiple orders has established a history of deliberate delay. As a result, giving careful consideration to the factors involved and considering all options in determining what sanction is just and proper, the Tribunal finds that dismissal is appropriate, and a lesser sanction would not be appropriate in light of Petitioner’s history of noncompliance in this case. Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED. This order resolves all pending claims in this matter and closes this case. 1 Grimm v Dep’t of Treasury, 291 Mich App 140 (2010). 2 Id. at 149.

MTT Docket No. 25-003844 Page 2 of 2 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 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. Entered: February 20, 2026 By _____________________________ kac 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.

Alternate Dispute Resolution Options INFORMAL SETTLEMENT CONFERENCE: Parties have the option of handling this case through an informal settlement conference. An informal settlement conference is a meeting between the parties and/or their representatives to discuss the issues in a case in an effort to settle the case. This process may be an alternative to a hearing with a judge and may result in the parties’ filing a Joint Stipulation for Entry of Consent Judgment. Visit the Tribunal’s ADR webpage for more information. NOTE: The parties may not request an informal settlement conference to discuss an appeal of a principal residence exemption that was denied by either the Michigan Department of Treasury or a County. Also, state taxes levied by the Michigan Department of Treasury, such as income taxes, are not subject to the informal settlement conference process. MEDIATION: Parties have the option of handling this case through mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process where a mediator facilitates communication between the parties, assists in identifying issues, and helps explore solutions to promote a mutually acceptable settlement. This process may be an alternative to a hearing with a judge and may result in the parties’ filing a Joint Stipulation for Entry of Consent Judgment. Visit the Tribunal’s ADR webpage for more information. If you have any questions, please contact the Tribunal by phone at (517) 335-9760 or email taxtrib@michigan.gov.

GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Bonnie R Rolle, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Petitioner, SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION v MTT Docket No. 25-003844 City of Detroit, Presiding Judge Respondent. Patricia L. Halm ORDER EXTENDING TIME FOR PETITIONER TO CURE DEFAULT The Tribunal has considered the file in this case and finds that it entered an order holding Petitioner in default on December 16, 2025, because Petitioner submitted a Tax Adjustment notice, which is a secondary notice of a tax increase resulting from the denial of a principal residence exemption (PRE) and is not the decision being appealed.1 Petitioner was required to cure the default by obtaining a copy of the PRE denial notice from Respondent and submit a copy to the Tribunal within 14 days. Petitioner has had ample time to comply, yet has failed to respond or submit the required filings. Though the Tribunal finds an extension of time to cure the default appropriate, Petitioner’s failure to comply with Tribunal orders and its Rules of Practice and Procedure has established a history of deliberate delay that would justify dismissal of the case for failure to timely comply with this order.2 Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that the time for Petitioner to cure the default is EXTENDED. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner must complete the following to cure the default: (1) file a copy of the PRE denial notice, (2) file a Motion to Set Aside Default, (3) pay the $25.00 fee required for the filing of the motion, and (4) file proof the motion was served on Respondent. The foregoing must be filed with the Tribunal within 14 days of the entry of this order.3 1 The order further stated, “Failure to comply with this order will result in the defaulted party being required to file a motion to set aside the default (with appropriate filing fee).” 2 See Grimm v Dep’t of Treasury, 291 Mich App 140 (2010). 3 “A submission by mail is considered filed on the date indicated by the United States Postal Service postmark on the envelope containing the submission. A submission without a postmark or with an illegible postmark is considered filed on the date the submission is received by the tribunal. A submission by commercial delivery service is considered filed on the date the submission is given to the commercial service for delivery to the tribunal as indicated by the receipt date on the package containing the submission. A submission by personal service is considered filed on the date the submission is received. A submission through the tribunal’s e-filing system by 11:59 p.m. on a business day is considered filed on that business day. A submission by email to the email address designated by the tribunal by 11:59 p.m. on a business day is considered filed on that business day. A submission on a Saturday, a Sunday, or a holiday is considered filed on the following business day, as provided by section 35a of the tax tribunal act, MCL 205.735a.” TTR 225(5).
