Presiding Judge

ORDER EXTENDING TIME FOR RESPONDENT TO CURE DEFAULT 

 

The Tribunal has considered the file in this case and finds that it entered an order 

holding Respondent in default on September 2, 2026, because Respondent failed to file 

an answer.1 Respondent was required to cure the default by filing an answer within 14 

days. Respondent 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, Respondent’s failure to comply with Tribunal orders and its Rules of 

Practice and Procedure has established a history of deliberate delay that would justify 

the scheduling of a default hearing for failure to timely comply with this order.2 

Therefore, 

 

IT IS ORDERED that the time for Respondent to cure the default is EXTENDED. 

 

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Respondent must complete the following to cure the 

default: (1) file an answer, (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 

Petitioner. 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).

If the property does not have a Principal Residence Exemption of at least 50% as of the date of the filing of this petition for all tax years at

If you are appealing more than one

Filing Fee is: 

$100,000.00 and under 

$250.00 

* Plus $25.00 for each additional parcel, as indicated above. 

If the property is 

NOT residential property and the State Equalized Value or Taxable Value in dispute is $100,000.01 or greater the 

appeal does not qualify for Small Claims. Therefore, an Entire Tribunal petition must be filed.
