ORDER VACATING ORDER OF DISMISSAL 

ORDER REINSTATING CASE 

ORDER EXTENDING TIME FOR PETITIONER TO CURE DEFAULT 

The Tribunal finds that Petitioner was placed in default on May 31, 2024, because 

Petitioner did not file a petition and submit the required filing fee. On June 26, 2024, the 

Tribunal extended the time for Petitioner to cure the default by an additional 14 days 

and Petitioner failed to respond. Specifically, the Tribunal’s June 26, 2024 Order 

Extending Time for Petitioner 

to Cure Default required Petitioner to submit a petition 

form along with required petition filing fee, file a Motion to Set Aside Default, pay the 

required motion fee, and file proof the Motion to Set Aside Default was served on 

Respondent. 

After Petitioner failed to respond to either of the Tribunal's orders, an 

Order of Dismissal was issued on July 23, 2024. 

Petitioner, on July 5, 2024, filed a non-property tax petition form challenging 

Assessment No. VB45A3L and paid the required $100 filing fee. Although the Order of 

Default specifically directed that “the petition shall note the docket number assigned by 

the Tribunal,” Petitioner's failure to properly identify the docket number resulted in the 

filing being docketed as a new appeal and assigned MTT Docket No. 24-003647. 

Nevertheless, Petitioner's filing should have been considered an attempt to cure the 

default in the above-referenced case. 

Given Petitioner's attempt to cure the default, the 

Tribunal finds that good cause exists to reinstate the case. That said, Petitioner's 

attempt to cure only partially complied with the June 26, 2024 Order Extending Time for 

Petitioner to Cure Default. 

Having now filed a non-property tax petition form and 

appropriate filing fee, the Tribunal finds one final extension of time to cure the default is 

appropriate. However, 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 the Tribunal’s Orders.! Therefore, 

1 See Grimm v Dep't of Treasury, 291 Mich App 140 (2010).

filing of the motion, and (3) file a proof of service indicating that the motion was served 

on Respondent. The foregoing must be filed with the Tribunal within 14 days of entry of 

this Order.?

ORDER OF DISMISSAL 

The Tribunal has reviewed the file in this case and finds that this case involves the 

same issues as MTT Docket No. 24-002171. 

Given the Tribunal has no authority to 

consider multiple appeals concerning the same parties and the same claim,” the 

Tribunal finds that this case is duplicative and is not properly pending before the 

Tribunal. Therefore, 

IT 1S ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED. 

This Order resolves all pending claims in this matter and closes this 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

ORDER OF DISMISSAL 

 

The Tribunal has reviewed the file in this case and finds that this case involves the 

same issues as MTT Docket No. 24-002171. Given the Tribunal has no authority to 

consider multiple appeals concerning the same parties and the same claim,1 the 

Tribunal finds that this case is duplicative and is not properly pending before the 

Tribunal. Therefore, 

 

IT IS ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED. 

 

This Order resolves all pending claims in this matter and closes this 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. 

 

 

1 See MCR 2.116(C)(6); MCR 2.116(I)(1).

Page 2 of 2 

 

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.
