After arraignment at 28th Circuit Court of Wexford County

In Wexford County, the initial arraignment in every criminal case occurs in the 84th District Court at the Wexford County Courthouse, 437 E. Division St., Cadillac, MI 49601 (231-779-9515), where the defendant is advised of the charges and the judge or magistrate sets bond. For misdemeanors, the 84th District Court handles the case through disposition. For felonies, the 84th District Court conducts the arraignment and a preliminary examination; if the judge finds probable cause that a felony was committed, the case is bound over to the 28th Circuit Court (231-779-9490), which serves Wexford and Missaukee counties and has jurisdiction over felony trials. When setting or reviewing bond, the judge considers factors under Michigan Court Rule 6.106, including the seriousness of the offense, prior record, ties to the community, and risk of flight or danger, and may order release on personal recognizance, an unsecured bond, a cash bond, or a 10% bond.
