STATE OF MICHIGAN GRETCHEN WHITMER GOVERNOR DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATORY AFFAIRS LANSING MARLON I. BROWN, DPA DIRECTOR MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL · 611 W. OTTAWA ST., LANSING, MI 48933 · 517-335-9760 PO BOX 30232, LANSING, MI 48909 · Other Carriers: 2407 N. GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Sharon G Bath, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Petitioner, SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION v MTT Docket No. 24-003548 Marion Township, Presiding Judge Respondent. Patricia L. Halm ORDER OF DISMISSAL The Tribunal issued a Proposed Order of Dismissal (POJ) on October 16, 2025. The POJ states, in pertinent part, “[t]he parties have 20 days from the ‘Entered’ date below to notify the Tribunal in writing, by mail or by electronic filing, if they do not agree with the POJ and to state in writing why they do not agree with the POJ (i.e., file exceptions to the POJ).” Neither party has filed exceptions to the POJ. The Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) considered the testimony and evidence submitted and made specific findings of fact and conclusions of law. The ALJ’s determination that the Tribunal’s authority was not properly invoked is supported by the applicable statutory and case law. Given the above, the Tribunal adopts the POJ and finds that dismissal of this case is warranted.1 Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that the case is DISMISSED. This Order resolves the last pending claim 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 1 See MCL 205.726.
Page 2
MTT Docket No. 24-003548 Page 2 of 2 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.

OTTAWA ST., LANSING, MI 48933 · 517-335-9760 PO BOX 30232, LANSING, MI 48909 · Other Carriers: 2407 N. GRAND RIVER AVE., LANSING, MI 48906 Sharon G Bath, MICHIGAN TAX TRIBUNAL Petitioner, SMALL CLAIMS DIVISION v MTT Docket No. 24-003548 Marion Township, Case Type: Valuation Respondent. PROPOSED ORDER OF DISMISSAL Personnel Presiding: Nancy Klukowski, Administrative Law Judge Location of Hearing: Telephone Hearing Held on: September 10, 2025 Appearances on Behalf of Petitioner: Kevin Roberts, Petitioner’s son Appearances on Behalf of Respondent: Matthew Dedes, Assessor PROCEDURAL HISTORY Petitioner was required to protest the subject property’s assessment to the Board of Review (BOR) and did so to the 2024 March BOR. The BOR did not change the assessment. Petitioner filed a petition with the Tribunal on June 27, 2024, and Respondent filed an answer on November 14, 2024. On November 14, 2024, the Tribunal issued an order placing Respondent in default for failing to file an answer to the petition. Respondent subsequently cured its default the same day that the order was issued. On November 19, 2024, the Tribunal issued an order setting aside Respondent’s default. The amount of the state equalized value (SEV) or taxable value (TV) in dispute, as set forth in the pleadings, for the 2024 tax year is within the jurisdictional limits of the Small Claims Division.1 Further, the property’s assessment for the 2025 tax year is not included in this proceeding, at the request of Petitioner.2 ISSUES AND APPLICABLE LAW The issues in this matter are: 1 See MCL 205.762(1). 2 See MCL 205.737(5)(b).
Page 2
MTT Docket No. 24-003548 Page 2 of 7 a) Whether the subject property is assessed in excess of 50% of its true cash value (TCV). “The petitioner has the burden of proof in establishing the true cash value of the property.”3 The assessment of real property in Michigan shall not exceed 50% of its TCV.4 “True cash value” means “the usual selling price . . . .”5 “True cash value” means “fair market value.”6 The Tribunal is required to make an independent determination of TCV.7 “[T]he tribunal is not bound to accept either of the parties’ theories of valuation. It may accept one theory and reject the other, it may reject both theories, or it may utilize a combination of both in arriving at its determination.”8 The Tribunal is required to select the valuation methodology that is accurate and bears a reasonable relationship to the property’s TCV.9 b) Whether the TV exceeds the amount provided by MCL 211.27a. MCL 211.27a provides that a property’s TV is the lesser of the property’s SEV or capped TV, and a property’s capped TV is, absent a transfer of ownership, determined mathematically by taking into consideration the prior tax year’s TV, statutory losses, the lesser of the rate of inflation or 5%, and statutory additions, including omitted property (i.e., property not previously assessed).10 SUMMARY OF EVIDENCE A. Petitioner’s Evidence Petitioner’s contentions of TCV, SEV and TV: Parcel Number: 4710-18-300-013 Year TCV SEV TV 2024 $99,245 $49,622 $49,622 3 MCL 205.737(3); see also Kern v Pontiac Twp, 93 Mich App 612, 620; 287 NW2d 603 (1979). 4 Michigan Const 1963, art IX, sec 3. 5 MCL 211.27(1). 6 CAF Investment Co v State Tax Comm, 392 Mich 442, 450; 221 NW2d 588 (1974). 7 See Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp v City of Warren, 193 Mich App 348; 483 NW2d 416 (1992). 8 Id. at 356. 9 See Safran Printing Co v Detroit, 88 Mich App 376; 276 NW2d 602 (1979). 10 See MCL 211.34d.
