How bail works in Marquette County
A person arrested in Marquette County is booked into the Marquette County Jail, 236 W. Baraga Avenue, Marquette, MI 49855 (Sheriff's Office main line 906-225-8435), an 80-bed facility operated by the Marquette County Sheriff's Office. After booking, the accused is arraigned in the 96th District Court (234 W. Baraga Ave., Marquette, MI 49855; 906-225-8235), which has authority to set and accept bail on both misdemeanor and felony cases. At arraignment the judge advises the defendant of the charges and rights and sets bond. Misdemeanors are generally resolved in the 96th District Court. For felonies, the District Court conducts the first appearance and a preliminary examination; if the judge finds probable cause, the case is bound over to the 25th Circuit Court (Courthouse Complex, 234 W. Baraga Ave., Marquette, MI 49855; 906-225-8330) for trial. Under Michigan practice, a court may release a defendant on personal recognizance, an unsecured appearance bond, or require a cash, 10% (deposit), or surety bond. Bond conditions and amount are set by the judge based on flight risk and public safety.
