Are you wondering where to file your Claim of Appeal?

Happy Friday and welcome back to our series on How to File an Appeal in Michigan. This series helps breaking down the Michigan Court of Appeals Handbook, which is a great resource, however, without a law degree can be difficult to understand.

Then we started examining the first type of appeal called Claim of Appeal.

Today, we are starting with the where. You can file at any of the below locations.

One thing to take note of is:

“Your appeal is not “filed” until it has been received by a clerk of the Court of Appeals.  Thus, the documents are not yet “filed” when you place them in a mailbox.  They are filed when they reach the Court of Appeals.  The clerk’s office will stamp all the documents it receives with the date and time of their arrival.”
