STATE OF MICHIGAN GRETCHEN WHITMER GOVERNOR DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS LANSING MARLON I. BROWN, DPA DIRECTOR MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL · 611 W. OTTAWA ST., LANSING, MI 48933 · 517-335-9760 PO BOX 30232, LANSING, MI 48909 · Other Carriers: 2407 N. GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Legacy Acquisitions, Petitioner, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION v MTT Docket No.24-003608 City of Detroit, Respondent. ORDER OF DISMISSAL The Tribunal has considered the file in the above-captioned case and finds that Petitioner was placed in default on October 29, 2025, for failing to appear at a duly- scheduled hearing. Even though Petitioner failed to comply with the order, the Tribunal must consider Grimm v Dep’t of Treasury1 prior to the dismissal of this case. In Grimm, the Michigan Court of Appeals summarized factors that the Tribunal must 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 Petitioner’s failure to appear at the hearing and failure to comply with the Order of Default 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. Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that this 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. 24-003608 Page 2 of 4 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. By:___________________________________ Patricia L.

GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Legacy Acquisitions, Petitioner, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION v MTT Docket No. 24-003608 City of Detroit, Respondent. ORDER OF DEFAULT The Tribunal has reviewed the file in this case and finds that Petitioner failed to appear for the duly-noticed hearing scheduled for October 29, 2025. Thus, this case is subject to dismissal or a default hearing.1 Prior to dismissal or the scheduling of a default hearing, however, the Tribunal finds that placing the absent party in default and ordering an explanation and documentation justifying the absence at the proceeding is appropriate.2 Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that the absent party is HELD IN DEFAULT. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the defaulted party shall submit information and documentation as directed above. The response must be filed with the Tribunal and served on the opposing party or the opposing party’s authorized representative within 14 days of entry of this order.3 Failure to comply with this order may result in dismissal of this case or the scheduling of a default hearing, as provided by TTR 237. By______________________________ Entered: October 29, 2025 Patricia L. Halm, Tribunal Chair 1 See TTR 247 & TTR 275. 2 See TTR 231 and See Grimm v Department 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).

MTT Docket No. 24-003608 Page 2 of 12 HEARING INFORMATION – PLEASE READ IMMEDIATELY GENERAL INFORMATION: An impartial hearing will be conducted in accordance with the Michigan Tax Tribunal Rules (R 792.10201-R 792.10297) and the Michigan Administrative Procedures Act, MCL 24.201 et seq. The Michigan Rules of Evidence and the Michigan Court Rules may be applicable. Parties are expected to exercise proper respect and courtesy toward other parties, witnesses, and administrative law judges, which includes attending the hearing on time, silencing cell phones, and choosing a quiet, private location to participate in the hearing to limit distractions and ensure minimal background noise. The hearing may be recorded for notetaking purposes, but the recording is not a formal record, unless otherwise provided for by the Tribunal. REPRESENTATION: You may have an attorney or anyone else of your choice represent you at the hearing. The Tribunal does not recommend or appoint representatives for you and will not pay for your representative. WITNESSES: You may have anyone join you at the hearing to speak in support of your case. However, the time to present your case is limited and additional time may not be provided to accommodate witness testimony. DOCUMENTATION: Parties are required to submit all documents in support of their contentions to both the Tribunal and the opposing party at least 21 days before the hearing date even if the documents were previously submitted to the local Board of Review or the Michigan Department of Treasury. If the documents are not timely submitted to both the Tribunal and the opposing party, the documents may be excluded. Documents may be submitted to the Tribunal by mail or through the Tribunal’s electronic filing (e- filing) system. Documents may be sent to the opposing party by mail or by e-mail, if the parties agree to submission by e-mail. If sent by mail, the documents must be sent to the opposing party or their authorized representative at the address identified in the petition or answer for that party or authorized representative, unless the party or authorized representative filed an appearance or other documentation identifying a different mailing address. The documents do not need to be resubmitted after the Notice of Hearing if they were previously submitted to the Tribunal and the opposing party in this case. If a hearing had previously been scheduled in this case and adjourned, and the adjournment order indicates that the parties are precluded from submitting any further documentary evidence, no further documentary evidence will be accepted even if filed and exchanged as indicated above. INCLUSION OF SUBSEQUENT TAX YEARS: Subsequent tax year assessments are automatically included in valuation appeals once the assessment has been established for that tax year. For purposes of administrative efficiency, the Tribunal considers this date April 1st. As such, the parties should submit documentation and be prepared to discuss subsequent tax year assessments at hearings to be

Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that Petitioner’s assessment appeal is PARTIALLY DISMISSED. The appeal shall continue for the 2024 tax year(s) only. By:___________________________________ Patricia L.
