14A District Court, Michigan

The construction of the new Washtenaw County District Court Building (14A-1) and Jail Expansion at the County Service Center has begun.

The project is expected to take approximately two (2) years, finishing in the latter half of 2010, and will require some rerouting for those who use the Service Center.

• The west side of the parking lot at the Service Center (the area closest to the Hogback Road entrance) is closed and will remain closed until the end of the construction project in 2010.  

• The Washtenaw Avenue entrance, through St. Luke’s Church parking lot, will be the main entrance to the Service Center throughout the construction project.

• The Hogback Road entrance to the Service Center is closed to all public traffic.

• Parking is still available at the east end of the lot, closer to the County’s Learning Resource Center, with overflow spaces available in the St. Luke's Church parking lot.  

The 14A District Court serves all of Washtenaw County, except the City of Ann Arbor and Township of Ypsilanti.

Our Vision:  Safe, efficient, and effective adjudication.
