MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL

SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION

v

MTT Docket No.25-002359

Township Of Chesterfield,

Respondent.

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

The Tribunal has considered the file in this case and finds that Petitioner was placed in 

default on August 19, 2026, 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.

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.

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

The Tribunal has considered the file in this case and finds that Petitioner was placed in 

default on August 19, 2026, 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 Treasury3 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.4 

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.

ORDER OF DEFAULT

The Tribunal has considered the file in this case and finds that Petitioner failed to 

appear for the duly-noticed hearing scheduled for August 19, 2026. Thus, this case is 

subject to dismissal or a default hearing. 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.1 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.2 

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.

SCOPE OF THE APPRAISAL 

The function of this appraisal is to estimate the true cash value as of 12/31/2024 (Valuation date for 

property tax assessments). Research date was obtained through a search of Macomb County and

true cash value of the subject property. The limited summary appraisal is intended to be used as a check 

of the Township's valuation. The Limited Appraisal conforms to USPAP Standard 6 for Mass Appraisal 

with jurisdictional exceptions as appropriate for the Chesterfield Township Appraisal Personnel.

respondent in an action before the Michigan Tax Tribunal. The writer is certified by the State Tax 

Commission as a Michigan Advanced Assessing Officer (3) in Assessment Administration. The appraiser 

certifies that they have met all the requirements for certification and are current on all continuing 

education requirements. Assessors are regulated by the State of Michigan Department of Treasury, 4th 

floor Treasury Building, Lansing, Mi 48922.

expert in construction materials and the purpose of the appraisal is to make an economic evaluation of 

the subject property. 

If the client needs a more detailed inspection of the property, a home inspection by 

a Professional Home inspector is suggested.

The signature(s) affixed to this report, and certification, were applied by the original appraiser(s) or 

supervisory appraiser and represent their acknowledgments of the facts, opinions and conclusions found 

in the report. Each appraiser(s) applied his or her signature electronically using a password encrypted

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 conducted on 

or after April 1st in a subsequent year. If the hearing is to be conducted prior to April 1st in a subsequent year, 

taxpayers are required to file a new petition and, if necessary, protest the subsequent tax year assessment at 

the March Board of Review for that year. 

MOTIONS/REQUESTS: A motion is a written request filed by a party asking the Tribunal to take certain action. 

The following motions and requests may be filed by either party regarding the scheduled hearing. Motions and 

requests may be submitted to the Tribunal by mail or through the Tribunal’s e-filing system. Motions and 

requests 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, motions and requests 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. 

1. Motion to Adjourn: Parties may request the hearing be rescheduled (i.e. adjourned). The motion must be 

submitted to both the Tribunal and the opposing party at least 28 days before the hearing unless there are 

emergency circumstances. The emergency circumstances must be detailed to justify the granting of what

case through an informal settlement conference. An informal settlement conference 

is a meeting between the parties and/or their representatives to discuss the issues in a 

case in an effort to settle the case. This process may be an alternative to a hearing with 

a judge and may result in the parties’ filing a Joint Stipulation for Entry of Consent 

Judgment. Visit the Tribunal’s ADR webpage for more information.

NOTE: The parties may not request an informal settlement conference to discuss an 

appeal of a principal residence exemption that was denied by either the Michigan 

Department of Treasury or a County. Also, state taxes levied by the Michigan 

Department of Treasury, such as income taxes, are not subject to the informal 

settlement conference process.
