Information Felony {MC 200w}

Form MC 200w - INFORMATION FELONY. The Michigan Felony Complaint, Information, Warrant, and Bindover forms are used in criminal felony proceedings to formally initiate, authorize, and transfer charges against a defendant within the Michigan court system. These standardized court documents are essential at various stages of a felony case. The Complaint portion is filed by a prosecuting attorney or complaining witness and outlines the alleged criminal acts, along with the applicable legal citations. The Information is used to officially inform the court and defendant of the charges being pursued in circuit court after a preliminary examination or waiver. The Warrant section allows a judge or magistrate to authorize law enforcement to arrest the defendant when probable cause is found. The Bindover/Transfer form is completed following a preliminary examination or its waiver, documenting the decision to send (or “bind over”) the felony case from district court to circuit court for trial. These documents also contain detailed information about the defendant, charges, witnesses, and procedural status of the case, ensuring compliance with Michigan laws and court rules such as MCL 764.1, MCL 766.1, and MCR 6.110. Collectively, these forms serve as the official legal pathway for prosecuting felony offenses in Michigan. Approved, SCAO. MCL 764.1 et seq.,MCL 766.1 et seq.
