GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Jeane M Smith, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Petitioner, v MTT Docket No. 26-002389 Waterford Township, 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 September 11, 2026, because Petitioner failed to submit a multiple parcel petition form and failed to sign the petition.1 Pursuant to Petitioner’s Order of Default, Petitioner was required to cure the default by filing a completed Entire Tribunal petition and Multiple Parcel Attachment to Petition form 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. 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 completed signed amended Entire Tribunal petition, indicating the docket number previously assigned by the Tribunal and if filed via the Tribunal’s e-filing system must be filed on the assigned docket number as an “amended petition;” (2) file a Multiple Parcel Attachment for Petition form; (3) file a Motion to Set Aside Default, and (4) pay the $50.00 fee required for the filing of the motion. The foregoing must be filed with the Tribunal within 14 days of the entry of this order.2 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 “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).
