47th Circuit Court of Delta County Bail Bonds & Bond Information

After arraignment at 47th Circuit Court of Delta County

In Delta County, a defendant's initial arraignment and the first bond determination occur in the 94th District Court at 310 Ludington Street, Escanaba, MI 49829 (906-789-5106). For misdemeanors, the District Court retains the case through resolution. For felonies, the District Court conducts the first appearance and the preliminary examination; if the judge finds probable cause that a felony was committed, the case is bound over to the 47th Circuit Court at the same address (906-789-5103) for arraignment on the information, pretrial proceedings, and trial. When setting bond, a Michigan judge follows MCR 6.106, weighing the seriousness of the offense, prior record, ties to the community, and risk of flight or danger, and may grant release on personal recognizance, an unsecured bond, or a secured cash, 10% or full surety, or property bond with conditions. Either court may modify bond as the case progresses. Verify hearing dates and bond status through the court or MiCOURT Case Search.
