Local Practice Notes
Wayne County's Third Circuit Court (Detroit) is Michigan's largest and busiest civil docket by a wide margin. Like every Michigan circuit, it operates under MCR 2.401(I): witness and exhibit lists must be filed and exchanged at the final pretrial conference, commonly 14 days before trial, and evidence left off the list risks exclusion absent good cause. The circuit's size qualifies it for a Business Court under MCL 600.8031, which handles qualifying commercial disputes exceeding $25,000. MiFILE e-filing is available, but individual circuits set their own local requirements, so confirm current Wayne County practice with the clerk before trial.
