3 RESPONDENT’S AFFIRMATIVE DEFENSES NOW COMES, Respondent, CITY OF STERLING HEIGHTS, by and through its attorneys, O’REILLY RANCILIO P.C. and states for its Affirmative Defenses as follows: 1. Petitioner lacks an interest in the property or standing to bring this action. 2. Lack of jurisdiction. 3. Res Judicata and Collateral Estoppel. 4. Petitioner fails to allege specific and sufficient facts to support a cause of action against Respondent. 5. The Petition is improper because it asks this Tribunal to grant a preference by application of a self-chosen method of assessment contrary to the laws of the State of Michigan. 6. The Petition is improper because its effect would be to shift the burden of the city, school and county taxes to other property owners within the City of Sterling Heights. 7. Petitioner has failed to join any and all claims arising out of the same transaction or occurrence subject to this action. 8. Respondent reserves the right to raise any additional affirmative defenses as they arise during the pendency of this matter. WHEREFORE, Respondent respectfully requests this Honorable Tribunal dismiss the Petition with prejudice and on the merits and further award Respondent any and all other relief in its favor as is deemed just and appropriate under the circumstances.
