Petitioned for Cell Phone Access in Michigan Courthouses

The Michigan Supreme Court adopted the rule change statewide in January 2020.

Petitioned for Cell Phone Access in Michigan Courthouses

Barring cell phones from courthouses is a real barrier for self-represented litigants, who rely on their phones to get to court, gather evidence, manage logistics, and reach legal help. We submitted a petition signed by more than 160 non-attorney litigants supporting a rule change to allow them.
