What if I settle my case before the hearing?

You can settle your tax matter at any time. You should contact the respondent before the hearing date and ask if he or she is willing to discuss settlement of your appeal. If you reach a settlement, you must file a written agreement (stipulation) signed by both parties, which provides the original and revised values. There is a $25.00 fee for the filing of the stipulation, unless the property has a principal residence exemption of at least 50% for the tax year at issue.

If you settle your case and you have a hearing scheduled, please contact the Tribunal by telephone to advise us of the settlement. If you do not contact the Tribunal, and fail to appear for your hearing, your case may be dismissed.
