Circuit Division

The Circuit Court Division is the trial court of general jurisdiction in Michigan because of its very broad power. Circuit Court has jurisdiction over all actions except those given by state to another court. Generally speaking, the Circuit Court has jurisdiction in all civil cases involving more than $25,000, in all criminal cases where the offense involves a felony or certain serious misdemeanors, and in cases related to family matters, including divorce, paternity actions, juvenile delinquency, abuse and neglect of minors, adoptions, emancipation of minors and name changes.

The Circuit Court also hears cases appealed from the Probate and District divisions and from some administrative agencies of state government.
