the michigan judiciary consists of two courts with primary jurisdiction (the circuit courts and the district courts), one intermediate level appellate court (the michigan court of appeals), and the michigan supreme court. there are several administrative courts and specialized courts. district courts are trial courts of limited jurisdiction, handling most traffic violations, small claims, misdemeanors, and civil suits where the amount contended is below $25,000. district courts are often responsible for handling the preliminary examination and for setting bail in felony cases. district court judges are elected to terms of six years. in a few locations, municipal courts have been retained to the exclusion of the establishment of district courts. there are 57 circuit courts in the state of michigan, which have original jurisdiction over all civil suits where the amount contended in the case exceeds $25,000 and all criminal cases involving felonies. circuit courts are also the only trial courts in the state of michigan which possess the power to issue equitable remedies. circuit courts have appellate jurisdiction from district and municipal courts, as well as from decisions and decrees of state agencies. most counties have their own circuit court, but sparsely populated counties often share them. circuit court judges are elected to terms of six years. state appellate court judges are elected to terms of six years, but vacancies are filled by an appointment by the governor. there are four divisions of the court of appeals in detroit, grand rapids, lansing, and marquette. cases are heard by the court of appeals by panels of three judges, who examine the application of the law and not the facts of the case unless there has been grievous error pertaining to questions of fact. the michigan supreme court consists of seven members who are elected on non-partisan ballots for staggered eight-year terms. the supreme court has original jurisdiction only in narrow circumstances but holds appellate jurisdiction over the entire state judicial system.

once a judge is appointed by the mayor to the criminal court, they can be transferred from one court to another by the office of court administration, and after two years' service in the lower courts, they may be designated by the chief administrator of the courts as an acting supreme court justice with the same jurisdiction as a supreme court justice upon consultation and agreement with the presiding justice of the appropriate appellate division. the mayor may appoint 107 criminal court judges, but only about 73 to 74 currently work in criminal court: 46 of these are mayorally appointed criminal court judges, and the remaining 27 are civil court judges (some elected and some mayorally appointed) assigned to criminal court; the other approximately 60 mayorally appointed criminal court judges have been designated acting supreme court judges to sit in supreme court hearing felony cases.
