Searching the Burton Court Docket
For a public case index and register of actions, use MiCOURT Case Search. The selected Burton court makes records available there. Pick the court first. Then search by last name, business name, or case number. A Burton result earns trust when it matches the court location, case type, filing date, and parties. A name alone is not enough.
Michigan ePAY is the tighter tool for an eligible Burton ticket. Need a certified copy, an official record, or a current hearing confirmation? The court of record remains the source. A name search with no match can mean a spelling error, a different court, or a restricted category. It can also mean a set-aside record or a portal display limit. That does not prove no Burton court matter exists.
- Identify whether the Burton matter is a district ticket, a district case, or a circuit filing.
- Select the court in MiCOURT and enter a case number or narrow a name search.
- For a ticket, choose the court in ePAY and use the ticket number if it is available.
- Read the Burton case status, register events, and visible setting as informational entries.
- Contact the listed court before travel, payment, or a request for a copy.
Burton Court Records in Division 2B
The 67th District Court local assignment order places Burton in Division 2B. That assignment covers traffic, civil infractions, misdemeanors, limited civil cases, small claims, and other district matters within the court's jurisdiction. The official ePAY contact list lists Burton D67-2 at 810-743-5600. The division name is a search and contact clue. It is not proof. Not every Burton file sits at an old local counter.
Case type can change the path. District felony preliminary proceedings can come before circuit action. Every felony case is filed centrally under the assignment order. Circuit civil, criminal, domestic, and family records run through the 7th Judicial Circuit Court's records channels in Flint. A Burton docket search therefore needs both the city connection and the court level.
The order also gives felonies a blind-draw assignment. When several felony cases involve the same person, the court may consolidate them. The cases go to the judge holding the lowest case number. That rule matters here. A Burton event may start in district court while its later circuit record is assigned centrally. Let the citation, charging papers, or visible register entries identify the court path rather than guessing from a Burton address.
Note: Burton's Division 2B assignment describes venue and administration. The county's changing service locations call for a direct location check.
Burton Municipal Court Basics
Burton has no separate municipal state trial-court docket. City government, code enforcement, and administrative materials are city records. But any Burton state-court traffic, criminal, civil-infraction, or limited civil record belongs with the 67th District Court. That line keeps a city-hall inquiry from standing in for the court of record.
The City of Burton source is the right place for city-government information. Its city context does not create a Burton court counter or a municipal trial docket. When a notice names the 67th District Court, use the district court's paths. Its MiCOURT, ePAY, and records-request routes control.
Note: A Burton city record and a Burton district court record can describe the same place. Yet the two remain different public record systems.
Burton City Records and Court Dockets
Read each Burton source for what it truly is. A city resolution, planning document, municipal agenda, or department file is not a register of actions. The city-hosted Burton municipal plan is a planning document. It tells you nothing about a Burton court location, judge, fee, or docket process.
- Register of actions
- The court's chronological Burton case history, also called an ROA.
- Court location
- The court or division shown in the case record and needed to interpret a Burton search result.
- City record
- A Burton municipal-government document that may be public but is not automatically a judicial case file.
- Certified copy
- A court-authenticated copy requested from the court that keeps the Burton file.
Clear labels help a Burton researcher keep administrative records apart from court filings and public case history.
Court Dates and Settings in Burton
A Burton hearing setting can show up in MiCOURT's public case history and, for circuit matters, through the 7th Circuit calendar route. A setting is only a scheduled court event. It may be continued, reset, or removed later. For a Burton district matter, call D67-2 or the contact on your notice to confirm. Do this especially when the date is close.
The 7th Circuit court schedule links to MiCOURT Court Display for circuit calendars. Burton matters that reach circuit jurisdiction should be checked there by court and case information. Never assume they sit on a city calendar.
| Date | The Burton setting date shown by the selected court, subject to later change. |
|---|---|
| Time | The listed hearing or docket-call time. |
| Room | The court room or public location field, where it is displayed. |
| Judge | The judge, referee, or hearing officer identified by the court record. |
| Setting type | The event label, such as arraignment, hearing, conference, or trial. |
Burton Ticket Docket Search Fields
The official ePAY ticket search gives Burton searchers several methods. County and court are chosen first. A ticket or case number is the tightest route. You can also search by last name and date of birth, driver license plus state, or license plate plus state. Use only the fields you need, and guard personal identifiers in any saved notes.
| Burton ePAY field | Use | Format note |
|---|---|---|
| Last name + ticket/case | Focused ticket lookup | Best when the Burton citation number is known. |
| Last name + date of birth | Name-based ticket lookup | Use the portal date selectors and confirm the returned court. |
| Driver license + state | Alternate ticket lookup | Select the issuing state in the official form. |
| License plate + state | Alternate ticket lookup | Confirm the Burton court result before relying on it. |
Results can list court, ticket number, issue date, violation, amount, and selection controls. A result is not an instruction to pay.
Traffic Tickets in Burton
Traffic matters in Burton land in 67th District Court. That includes civil infractions. Two tools can help: ePAY finds an eligible ticket, and MiCOURT gives the public a case-history route. The citation number and the issuing court pin down a Burton record far better than the city name alone. Nothing on ePAY? Call the court or the Burton D67-2 listing before giving up on the record.
Read the fine print before paying. Paying through ePAY counts as an appearance, waives a hearing, and admits responsibility. An outage, the portal warns, does not push back a due date. For the broader Genesee process, and the difference between a court file and the state motor-vehicle record, see the traffic tickets reference.
Burton District Copy Records
Copies start with paper. The official 67th District Court records request form is the Burton route. It covers district review and copies. The form wants requester information, a case number, party names, and a choice among review, a complete file, or one specific document. Asking for the complete file does not unlock anything nonpublic.
Send the form by mail to the Records Department at 630 S. Saginaw Street, Flint, MI 48502. Email works too, at 67THHELP@GENESEECOUNTYMI.GOV. A fax option sits at 810-768-7912. Copies run $1 per page. A certified copy costs $11. Unclaimed records can be disposed of after 30 days, so settle payment and pickup steps with Records in advance.
Name a document or request review if you can. That moves faster than assuming an online case history holds the whole file. The form does allow a case-file request. It repeats that nonpublic records stay off limits. And if the Burton matter sits in circuit court, take it to the 7th Circuit Legal Records Division, not the district Records Department.

Where Burton Cases Go
Jurisdiction decides where a Burton case lives. District work covers traffic, civil infractions, misdemeanors, small claims, limited civil claims, and the preliminary phase of a felony. Felony trials, circuit civil matters, family cases, and domestic cases follow the 7th Judicial Circuit Court record route. Probate goes to its own separate Probate Court.

A Burton address alone will not find the record. The Genesee County court docket overview sums up the statewide court hierarchy and the copy channels.
Burton Court Location Checks
Burton is still a Division 2B assignment area. But the district court's 2025 consolidation redrew the service map. The county plan centralized operations and closed the Flushing and Mt. Morris satellite facilities. It added a magistrate hearing room at McCree and anticipated technology upgrades. Call before you visit any Burton court service point.
Get the current location from the court itself, a notice, or a current county source. A general city page proves nothing about whether a counter is open. Neither does an old community listing. The court's D67-2 telephone listing is the documented Burton contact for a direct check.
Note: a Burton division assignment can stay valid. Countywide consolidation can still change the public counter arrangements.
Burton Court Record Access Rules
Access to public Burton court records runs through Michigan court rules and the process of the court holding the file. MCR 8.119 covers public court records, online registers, inspection, and reproduction. It does not promise online images for every Burton filing, nor access to restricted files.
Key Rules:
MCR 8.119 supplies Michigan's court-record access framework.
MCR 3.925 limits access to juvenile files and related confidential material.
Michigan FOIA, MCL 15.231 et seq. applies to appropriate county administrative records, not as a substitute for a Burton court file request.
Burton Court Records and State Records
One Burton ticket can spawn two records held by two offices. The 67th District Court keeps the case record, register, and hearing information. It also holds the court copy route. The Michigan Secretary of State keeps a separate state motor-vehicle record. Neither shows the whole story. A MiCOURT or ePAY result misses some state consequences. A state record never replaces the Burton court file.
The official Michigan Driving Record source lays out the state record route. It marks the two-record distinction only. It does not change how a Burton court docket is found.
Need the court action itself corrected? The court and its corrected abstract process handle that.
The official PACER pricing source documents the separate federal docket system, used only if a Burton-connected matter lands in federal court.
A Burton state trial-court search stays with MiCOURT, ePAY, and the right court clerk. Federal is the only exception.
