Hearings & Trials

Equity Suits

Equity suits are cases which seek judgment for something other than money. The most common of these are divorces, adoptions, boundary line disputes, and deeds/estate matters.

Appeals

The Circuit Court also hears appeals from the General District Court (Civil, Traffic and Criminal) and the Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court.

Case Alert Subscription System (CASS) - Notifications and alerts on a court case 

The Case Alert Subscription System (CASS) can be used to receive alerts when a traffic or criminal case is updated with a change in hearing date, time and/or courtroom. The system can also be used to receive reminders 1 day, 3 days and/or 1 week before a scheduled hearing. CASS alerts will be sent as email messages or SMS text messages (or both, if desired).
