OTTAWA ST., LANSING, MI 48933 · 517-335-9760 PO BOX 30232, LANSING, MI 48909 · Other Carriers: 2407 N. GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Grand Hospitality LLC, Petitioner, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL ENTIRE TRIBUNAL v MTT Docket No. 26-002362 Township Of Cascade, Respondent. ORDER OF DISMISSAL The Tribunal has considered the file in this 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

GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Grand Hospitality LLC, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Petitioner, v MTT Docket No. 26-002362 Cascade Township, Presiding Judge Respondent. Patricia L. Halm ORDER HOLDING PETITIONER IN DEFAULT The Tribunal has reviewed the file in this case and finds that the Tribunal severed the above-captioned appeal from MTT docket number 25-000754 on June 17, 2026. The order required Petitioner to file a petition pertaining to the 2026 tax year within 21 days of entry of the order and Petitioner has failed to respond or submit a petition. As a result, Petitioner shall be placed in default. 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 the dismissal of this case for failure to timely comply with this order.1 Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner is held in DEFAULT. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner must file a petition pertaining to the 2026 tax year within 21 days of entry of this order. The petition shall note the docket number assigned by the Tribunal for the 2026 tax year, and if filed utilizing the Tribunal’s e-filing system, must be filed on the assigned 2026 docket number as a “severed petition.” Failure to comply with this order will result in the dismissal of this case.2 Entered: July 16, 2026 By: /s/ Patricia L. Halm kac 1 See Grimm v Dep’t of Treasury, 291 Mich App 140 (2010). 2 TTR 237(1). See also MCL 205.732.

Halm ORDER GRANTING PETITIONER’S MOTION TO AMEND ORDER SEVERING 2026 TAX YEAR AND ASSIGNING IT TO DOCKET NUMBER 26-002362 On May 21, 2026, Petitioner filed a motion requesting that the Tribunal permit it to amend the petition filed in this case to include tax year 2026. On June 5, 2026, Respondent filed a response to the motion. In the response, Respondent states that it would be “severely prejudiced because it would be forced to defend the 2026 tax year assessment without having access to or a meaningful opportunity to conduct discovery for the 2026 tax year” before the July 6, 2026 deadline to submit valuation disclosures in this matter. The Tribunal has considered the motion and the case file and finds that Petitioner timely filed its Motion to Amend, included the necessary information and filing fee, and otherwise met all requirements set forth in MCL 205.737 and MCL 205.735a. Due to the stage in which this case is at, however, and in the interest of judicial efficiency, the 2026 tax year shall be severed from this case and assigned to a new docket number. Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner’s Motion to Amend is GRANTED. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner’s assessment appeal for the 2026 tax year is SEVERED and ASSIGNED to Docket No. 26-002362. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Petitioner shall file a petition for the 2026 tax year within 21 days of the entry of this order. The petition shall note the docket number assigned by the Tribunal for the 2026 tax year and if filed utilizing the Tribunal’s e-filing system, must be filed on the assigned 2026 docket as a “Severed Petition.”1 1 Alternatively, the petition may be downloaded from the Tribunal’s website and mailed to the Tribunal via United States Postal Service at: Michigan Tax Tribunal, PO BOX 30232, Lansing, MI 48909.
