Circuit Court Fines and Fees

Upon sentencing defendants in felony cases are usually ordered by the court to pay fines and fees.  In Eaton County these are paid at the County Clerk’s Office, 1st floor.

 

Public Circuit Court cases can be searched online at: https://micourt.courts.michigan.gov/CaseSearch/Court/C56

You can find the Case ID (docket number) and balance due. 

Providing the docket number with payment ensures it is applied to the correct case.
