 ENTIRE TRIBUNAL

v 

 MTT Docket No. 26-000968

City Of Lansing,

Respondent.

ORDER OF DISMISSAL

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

Petitioner has filed a Motion to Withdraw the Petition prior to the Petition being served 

on Respondent. Thus, Respondent has not appeared in this case. 

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

Page 2

MTT Docket No. 26-000968

Page 2 of 2

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.

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.

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):

Page 4

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.
