Judge Rhodes allows some property appeals in Detroit bankruptcy
DETROIT (AP) -- A judge overseeing Detroit's bankruptcy case is allowing some real estate owners to meet a deadline to appeal their property values.
Judge Steven Rhodes has suspended litigation against the city during the bankruptcy process, but he made an exception Wednesday after getting a few requests. It's unclear if his order applies to any Detroit property owner who wants to file an appeal.
Wednesday is the deadline to appeal a property assessment at the Michigan Tax Tribunal.
The judge's order is limited to filing an appeal. Parties can't argue their case or collect money.
