What is the 50th District Court?

The 50th District Court serves the City of Pontiac. This is a court that moves many felonies through its doors and is the site of some of our most serious representations. Governed by four judges, Judge Michael Martinez, Judge Cynthia Walker, and Judge Ronda Gross, the Pontiac District Court can be a great place to practice. The reason for this is that all four judges are no nonsense and will throw out a felony case if the Oakland County Prosecutor can’t carry their proofs.

The Pontiac District Court Can be a Tough Court

Even though the judges of the 50th District Court are not afraid to throw out a felony case, make no mistake, they are not necessarily the most lenient either. The key thing about the judges in Pontiac is that they are no nonsense and do not want to hear excuses. Further, they expect and reward good lawyering.

Typical Types of Pontiac Felonies

Although we’ve handled all sorts of different types of felony cases in Pontiac, one of the most prevelant are drug cases. Ever since the Pontiac Police Departmet disbanded and the Oakland County Sheriff took over, the Oakland County Narcotic Enforcement Team (NET Team) has had a major presence in investigating drug crimes in Pontiac. We have routinely fought with the NET Team over the years, with some epic success stories. Give us a call today and let’s talk about your Pontiac criminal case.
