Petitioner, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL

 SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION

v 

 MTT Docket No. 26-000592

City of Detroit,

Respondent.

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

The Tribunal has reviewed the file in the above-captioned case and finds that:

The petition was not filed by May 31 or the next business day after the Tribunal offices 

were closed. See MCL 205.735a(6). As such, and inasmuch as the Tribunal has no 

equitable power to waive or otherwise disregard statutory filing requirements and 

deadlines, it has no authority to hear the appeal or grant the relief requested. See 

Sixarp, LLC v Byron Twp, __Mich__; __NW3d__ (2025). 

Therefore,

IT IS ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED.

This order resolves all pending issues and closes the 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.

Section 4: Issues Being Appealed (check all that apply)

True Cash and Taxable Value

 

Section 5: Explain the Reason for this Appeal

The property at 10089 Gratiot Ave. was Purchased by Patience Key LLC in December 2024. Going into 2025, the City of Detroit and the Buildings, Safety 

Engineering and Environmental Department Property Maintenance Division came very demanding to get the building in compliance. This property is vacant and has 

been sitting vacant for over 15 years. After handling all repairs required for compliance, the City of Detroit granted us our Certificate of Compliance. After this 

process, we moved to the appeal process for our 2025 taxes, but the deadline had passed. I was advised by an attorney to wait until 2026 to receive my Notice For 

Assessors Review Period to see if my 2026 assessed and taxable value would go down. I was also advised to not do anymore repairs on the property until this tax 

situation is resolved, as it could effect the decision of the appeal.

Once I received my 2026 Notice From Assessors Review Period, my assessed and taxable value went from $103,400 in 2025 to $48,900 in 2026. I appealed my 

2026 taxes and after the appeal, my 2026 assessed and taxable value went down to $37,500. My taxable value in 2024 was $16,813. I believe $37,500 is a fair price 

for my 2025 assessed and taxable value also, because I believe it should only had doubled from my 2024 taxable value.

The building needs a lot of repairs that were not calculated by the assessor in 2025. The building needs a full rehab, including roofing and basement repairs. I'm 

asking for this appeal, because the building was purchased in 2024 for $10,000 and once uncapped, the taxes reached $10,000 in 2025. If the taxes are at a 

reasonable price, I can pay them current and proceed to the next level of this development. Thank You for your consideration.
