How to Search Flint Traffic Court Records

Flint has two main search options. The first is the 67th District Court's own records search portal at 67thdc.com/records_search. This portal is specific to the 67th District Court and lets you look up cases filed there directly. The second is the statewide MiCOURT portal at micourt.courts.michigan.gov/case-search, which aggregates case data from district courts across Michigan including the 67th. Both are free to use. You can search by name or case number on either platform.

MiCOURT shows party names, charges, court dates, case status, and dispositions. Most Flint traffic cases appear in MiCOURT within a few days of being filed. The 67th District Court's own portal may have additional case detail for local filings. If you are looking for a specific case and don't find it in one portal, try the other. For records that are not online, you can contact the court directly or submit a FOIA request through the Genesee County FOIA office.

Copy fees for physical documents from the 67th District Court follow Michigan state law. Plain copies are $1.00 per page. Certified copies cost $10.00 for the first page plus $1.00 for each page after that. Contact the court at (810) 257-3170 or email clerk@67thdc.com to ask about how to request records in person or by mail.

MiCOURT does not display certain case types. Sealed records, Clean Slate expungements, HYTA cases, and matters handled under MCL 333.7411 are excluded from the public portal. Date of birth is also hidden in all MiCOURT results under MCR 1.109, a rule that went into effect April 1, 2022. These protections apply whether you are searching through MiCOURT or the court's own portal.

What Flint Traffic Court Records Contain

Flint traffic court records at the 67th District Court include specific information about each case. Civil infraction records show the citation number, the date and location of the alleged violation, the charge, and the outcome. When a hearing was held, the record includes the hearing date, the judge or magistrate who handled the case, and whether the infraction was upheld, reduced, or dismissed. Points assessed and fines ordered are all part of the public case record.

Misdemeanor traffic records have more detail. They include the charge, arraignment date, any bond set, the full list of hearing dates, and the final disposition. Fines, probation terms, or jail time imposed at sentencing are included. OWI cases under MCL 257.625 cover the entire criminal proceeding. If a warrant was ever issued in the case, that also appears in the record. These records remain on file unless the person later receives an expungement under Michigan's Clean Slate law.

Note: Date of birth is never shown in public search results, and any case that has been sealed or expunged will not be found through any public search tool.

Responding to a Flint Traffic Citation

If you get a traffic citation in Flint, you have three ways to respond: admit the violation, admit with an explanation, or deny the violation. You have 14 days from the citation date to respond. You can respond by mail, by phone, in person at the 67th District Court Flint Division, or through a legal representative. If you do not respond within 14 days, the court enters a default judgment. That means points are added to your record, the Secretary of State may suspend your license, and you owe the original fine plus late fees and a reinstatement fee.

Admitting the violation means you pay the full fine and take the points. Admitting with an explanation lets you tell the court what happened. The judge or magistrate may reduce the fine, but points still apply if the violation is upheld. Denying the violation means you want a hearing. Informal hearings are quicker and do not require an attorney. Formal hearings follow more structured rules. Either way, courts in Michigan cannot change the number of points tied to a specific violation. Points are set by the Michigan Vehicle Code based on the charge, not the court's discretion.

Note: You can email the court at clerk@67thdc.com to ask general questions about your citation or confirm your court date before appearing in person.

Traffic Points and Your Flint Driving Record

Michigan's point system adds points to your driving record when you are found responsible for a traffic violation. The number of points depends on the offense. OWI under MCL 257.625, reckless driving, fleeing police, and leaving the scene each carry 6 points. Speeding 16 mph or more over the limit is 5 points. Speeding 11 to 15 mph over is 4 points. Going 1 to 10 mph over the limit, running a red light, and improper passing are each 3 points. Most other moving violations add 2 points to your record.

Accumulating 12 points within two years requires a reexamination by the Michigan Secretary of State. All driving record matters are handled at michigan.gov/sos. The Secretary of State's office can be reached at 517-322-1624. Points stay on your record for two years from the date of the violation. Courts have no authority to reduce or remove points. Only time clears them, and that clock starts on the date the violation occurred, not the date the case was resolved in court.
