Good morning, Your Honor.
I am representing myself today, so I ask for your patience.
I respectfully ask the Court to consider this case. In Pung v. Isabella County, No. 25-95, slip op. (U.S. June 23, 2026), the court held that after a fairly conducted tax sale, the government owes the former owner the surplus from the sale price, not the property's fair market value.
I respectfully ask the Court for more time to resolve this.
Thank you, Your Honor, for hearing me. I am ready to answer your questions.
