notified at least 28 days before they are scheduled to appear. Scheduling will not 

necessarily occur in the order in which the cases are listed below.

Parties are required to submit a valuation disclosure or written notification that no 

valuation disclosure is required by the dates indicated herein. A “valuation disclosure” 

is defined as documentary or other tangible evidence in a property tax proceeding that a 

party relies upon in support of the party’s contention as to the true cash value of the 

subject property or any portion thereof and contains the party’s value conclusion and 

data, valuation methodology, analysis or reasoning. See TTR 203 and TTR 241.

Users who file documents with the Tribunal are advised that filed documents are 

public records and will appear for public viewing on the Tribunal’s Tax Docket 

Lookup. If a user wishes to file a document for consideration by the Tribunal and 

prevent its publication on the Tax Docket Lookup, the user MUST file a Motion for 

Protective Order under MCR 2.302(C)(8). If a Protective Order is issued, documents 

covered by the order will not be published. Documents filed prior to the issuance of a 

Protective Order will be published.

In accordance with MCR 1.109(D)(9) and TTR 209, the responsibility for excluding or 

redacting personal identifying information (PII) from all documents filed with or offered to 

the Tribunal rests solely with the parties and their attorneys. The Tribunal is not 

responsible for or required to review, redact, or screen documents at the time of filing 

for PII whether filed electronically or on paper. A party, representative, or interested 

person (i.e. third party not part of an appeal) may request that the Tribunal redact PII 

contained in a previously filed document by submitting a Request for Redactions. The 

Request for Redactions form is available on the Entire Tribunal and Small Claims pages 

of the Tribunal’s website. 

Please refer to the Tribunal’s FAQs and Glossary of Terms pages on the Tribunal’s 

website for more information.

19. Petitioner requests the following relief (attach additional page if necessary): 

Petitioner respectfully requests that the Michigan Tax Tribunal enter an order: (a) reducing the 2026 

True Cash Value, State Equalized Value, and Taxable Value of the subject property to the values set 

forth in paragraph 17 above; (b) directing Respondent to refund to Petitioner all taxes paid in excess 

of those properly owed, plus statutory interest; and (c) granting such other and further relief as is just 

and equitable. 

20. List the separate and specific facts upon which Petitioner relies to support the relief requested (attach 

additional page if necessary): 

A. The equalized assessment thus imposed on the subject property is more than 50% of its true cash 

value in violation of the applicable statutory and constitutional limitations. 

B. The assessment is based on improper or inaccurate valuation methodology, including but not 

limited to the use of non-representative data, failure to account for relevant property characteristics, 

and/or application of incorrect assumptions. As a result, the assessment is not uniform with 

comparable properties and results in an excessive and unlawful tax burden.
