<p> </p>
<p>My colleagues and I are privileged to serve the people of the state of Michigan. Our role in Michigan’s system of government demands that we interpret the law dispassionately, ensure that justice is available to
everyone, remain responsive to the needs of our communities, and resolve disputes efficiently. We take these responsibilities seriously. </p>
<div>
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>
</div>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">To those ends, our work is guided by four fundamental principles.</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">
</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P"><br><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12.8px;background-color:transparent">INDEPENDENCE. Unlike the executive and legislative branches, the judicial branch is nonpartisan. This means
that politics must not inform our work. Our judicial decisions must be based instead on neutral application of the law. </span></p>

<p class="ms-rteElement-P">ACCESSIBILITY. Justice must be available to everyone, not just to those who can afford it. We must work diligently to ensure that our courts are open to all. This means we will continue
to search for new ways to remove barriers to our judicial system.</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P"> </p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">
</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">ENGAGEMENT. The judiciary must also be adaptive to the needs of those it serves, and attuned to the problems and concerns of the communities that most depend on our work. This means that
judges must be willing to engage with civic organizations and community leaders to ensure that we are responsive to the needs of those we serve.</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P"> </p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">
</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">EFFICIENCY. The judiciary also must be careful stewards of public resources. This means we must provide the best possible service to the individuals and businesses that appear before
us. We must not lose sight of the time and money at stake in any judicial proceeding. We will continue to find ways to serve the public as efficiently as practicable. </p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P"> </p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">
</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">These fundamental principles inform the opinions and orders we issue in cases that come before us, the administrative rules that govern how Michigan courts operate, and our management of the state’s
trial courts.</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P"> </p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">
</p>
<p class="ms-rteElement-P">While we are proud of the work the Michigan Supreme Court does, we must always aim to do better. Going forward, we will continue to look for ways to serve you better. Michigan’s judiciary
will do all we can to serve the people of our great state. </p>

<p><span style="line-height:14.72px;font-family:calibri, sans-serif;font-size:11pt;background-color:transparent">The Clerk’s Office of the Michigan Supreme Court has designed two forms for use by self-represented litigants in
preparing applications for leave to appeal in civil and criminal cases. The forms satisfy the formatting and structural requirements of the court rules if they are completed in accordance with the accompanying
instructions. The instructions and forms are not intended to provide legal advice on whether you should file the application, what factual information you should include, or what issues you should raise and
argue. Providing these forms should not be viewed as encouraging anyone to act without the assistance of counsel in the Supreme Court. There are many strategic and procedural decisions that must be made during
the appeal process, and an attorney’s assistance might be critical to the success of your application. </span><br></p>

A MESSAGE FRO M
CHIEF JUSTICE BRIDGET M. MC CORMACK
Welcome to the Michigan Supreme Court.
My colleagues and I are privileged to serve the people of the state of
Michigan. Our role in Michigan’s system of government demands that we interpret
the law dispassionately, ensure that justice is available to everyone, remain
responsive to the needs of our communities, and resolve disputes efficiently.
We take these responsibilities seriously.
To those ends, our work is guided by four fundamental principles.
INDEPENDENCE. Unlike the executive and legislative branches, the judicial
branch is nonpartisan. This means that politics must not inform our work. Our
judicial decisions must be based instead on neutral application of the law.
ACCESSIBILITY. Justice must be available to everyone, not just to those who can
afford it. We must work diligently to ensure that our courts are open to all.
This means we will continue to search for new ways to remove barriers to our
judicial system.
ENGAGEMENT. The judiciary must also be adaptive to the needs of those it
serves, and attuned to the problems and concerns of the communities that most
depend on our work. This means that judges must be willing to engage with civic
organizations and community leaders to ensure that we are responsive to the
needs of those we serve.
EFFICIENCY. The judiciary also must be careful stewards of public resources.
This means we must provide the best possible service to the individuals and
businesses that appear before us. We must not lose sight of the time and money
at stake in any judicial proceeding. We will continue to find ways to serve the
public as efficiently as practicable.
These fundamental principles inform the opinions and orders we issue in cases
that come before us, the administrative rules that govern how Michigan courts
operate, and our management of the state’s trial courts.
While we are proud of the work the Michigan Supreme Court does, we must always
aim to do better. Going forward, we will continue to look for ways to serve you
better. Michigan’s judiciary will do all we can to serve the people of our
great state.

WHAT'S NEW
DATES OF THE 2021 APPELLATE DEFENDER COMMISSION MEETINGS
ORDERING CERTIFICATES OF GOOD STANDING BY EMAIL
Effective immediately, the Supreme Court Clerk's Office will accept requests
for Certificates of Good Standing by email, and paid with a credit or debit
card, using this FORM. If the purpose of the certificate does not require it to
be issued by the Supreme Court, you should consider ordering the State Bar's
version of the certificate, which can be ordered online at no charge for the
present time. The webpage for ordering the SBM's
certificate is https://www.michbar.org/programs/cogs.
MANDATORY E-FILING FOR ATTORNEYS:
Effective February 1, 2020, attorneys are required to make all filings with the
Michigan Supreme Court and Michigan Court of Appeals electronically using the
MiFILE system unless excused by court order upon a motion for good cause. See
revised Administrative Order 2014-13 .
E-BRIEFS
Beginning on October 23, 2019, filers may submit electronic briefs with the
Michigan Supreme Court and Court of Appeals that are formatted to accommodate
viewing on electronic displays and that allow for a maximum word count instead
of a page limitation. Click HERE to read Administrative Order 2019-6:
MIFILE FOR SUPREME COURT AND COURT OF APPEALS
On September 6, 2019, the Michigan Supreme Court and Court of Appeals
transitioned from TrueFiling to MiFILE, the statewide e-filing system that
is used by several state trial courts. You need to be aware of the following
information and take the necessary steps so that you can use the MiFILE system
for appellate court filings:
* Your TrueFiling user information cannot be imported into MiFILE so you will
need to re-register at https://mifile.courts.michigan.gov. As of 9:00 a.m. on
September 7, 2019, all e-filings must now be submitted through MiFILE.
* The TrueFiling site (https://www.truefiling.com) is no longer available for
e-filing in the Supreme Court or Court of Appeals. But you will still be able
to access your filing history in TrueFiling for the next six months.
* Additional information and user resources are available on the Courts' MiFILE
webpage
(https://courts.michigan.gov/opinions_orders/e-filing/pages/default.aspx ).
INTERNAL OPERATING PROCEDURES (IOPS)
The Clerk’s Office is pleased to announce the availability of the Supreme
Court’s Internal Operating Procedures (IOPs) that interpret and implement the
Subchapter 7.300 court rules. The IOPs are bookmarked and include a hyperlinked
table of contents and index for easier navigation.
MCR 7.300 IOPs (PDF version only)
Please provide any comments or suggestions regarding the IOPs to the Clerk’s
Office by email at MSC_Clerk@courts.mi.gov or by phone at (517) 373-0120.
ADMINISTRATIVE ORDERS
The Administrative Orders of the Supreme Court are more user friendly thanks to
several enhancements, including a table of contents and a subject matter index.
The table of contents lists the numbers and titles of the Administrative
Orders and identifies those that have been rescinded by subsequent Court order.
Both the table of contents and the index are hyperlinked so you can quickly jump
to a specific order.
FORMS FOR SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS
The Clerk’s Office of the Michigan Supreme Court has designed two forms for use
by self-represented litigants in preparing applications for leave to appeal in
civil and criminal cases. The forms satisfy the formatting and structural
requirements of the court rules if they are completed in accordance with the
accompanying instructions. The instructions and forms are not intended to
provide legal advice on whether you should file the application, what factual
information you should include, or what issues you should raise and
argue. Providing these forms should not be viewed as encouraging anyone to act
without the assistance of counsel in the Supreme Court. There are many strategic
and procedural decisions that must be made during the appeal process, and an
attorney’s assistance might be critical to the success of your application.
Forms for the most common types of motions, for a proof of service, and for a
notice of filing are available on the Self-Represented Litigants Forms
page. Attorneys are also welcome to use the forms.
GUIDE FOR BRIEFING AND ARGUING CASES IN THE MSC
Attorneys who appear for oral arguments before the Michigan Supreme Court have a
valuable resource: a comprehensive guide on briefing and arguing their cases.
The guide, Briefing and Arguing Cases in the Michigan Supreme Court, was
prepared by Supreme Court staff with extensive input from several prominent
appellate practitioners. Topics include preparation for oral argument, filing,
brief writing tips, oral argument procedures, and more. It is especially
designed for those attorneys making their first appearance before the Court.
