One of the fifteen busiest trial courts in the nation, Wayne County Circuit Court processes over 100,000 cases annually. For the past two years Wayne County's leadership failed to appropriate sufficient funds necessary to allow the citizens of Wayne County access to justice in the Wayne Circuit Court. This failure has contributed to impossible staff workloads, deteriorating buildings "not fit for man nor beast" and antiquated, inefficient technical equipment.
Images of the Wayne County court crisis include:
Over a hundred boxes each containing hundreds of unfiled court documents due to a shortage of modern imaging technology.
Scores of boxes of unopened responses to juror questionnaires.
A Friend of the Court staff fighting a losing battle, trying to process 289,000 open cases — 1,229 per staff member, nearly 300 percent more than any other county.
Tens of thousands of outstanding bench warrants for child support.
A computer system so antiquated that it is not possible for different divisions of the court to share case records.
A building with only one functioning public women's room to accommodate over 1,000 visitors daily.
