How to Search the Roseville Court Docket
Roseville and Fraser share the 39th District Court. Its official Roseville page posts local case-search, court-calendar, and Case Search - Register of Actions links. When you know the matter belongs in Roseville, begin at the 39th District Court page. Is the court unclear? Does a local docket search need another path? Then use MiCOURT Case Search statewide.
The exact case number is your best tool. A party name, case type, citation number, or division can narrow a Roseville result further. On MiCOURT, the name panel starts with last name or business. It then offers optional first name, middle name, and birth year fields. The case-number panel splits year, number, and type. Confirm you have the right 39th court. Do not trust a similar name or number as your case.
Write down the court, case number, status, case-history entries, and the next setting. A public docket search can be dynamic or incomplete. For an urgent hearing or an official record, the correct 39th division, not a general county office, gives the answer. A general county office does not.
- Check the Roseville notice or citation for the 39th court and division.
- Open the official 39th court page and select its case-search or Register of Actions route.
- Use MiCOURT when the local route does not resolve the venue or case.
- Match the Roseville court, case number, type, and hearing details.
- Contact the holding division for a current setting, copy, or restricted-result question.
Roseville 39th Court Venue
The 39th District Court sits at 29733 Gratiot Avenue, Roseville, MI 48066, telephone 586-773-2010. It serves Roseville and Fraser. The Roseville court page states that both cities hold court at the Roseville location. Its docket covers traffic and civil infractions. It also covers misdemeanors, preliminary felony activity, civil cases, and small claims.
The Fraser division lists a separate office. Macomb's 39-B entry shows 33000 Garfield Road, P.O. Box 10, Fraser, and 586-293-3137, while noting that court sessions happen at the Roseville location. So the office address, the venue, and the hearing room can differ. Check the division on your notice before you travel or request a file.
The official Roseville court page supplies the local court, calendar, and division paths.

The Roseville Municipal Court
Macomb's court map shows no separate Roseville municipal-court docket. The 39th District Court handles district-level case types for the city. A Roseville citation, misdemeanor, civil matter, or small claim follows the 39th court path. It is not some additional city register.
Felonies from Roseville or Fraser start in district court. They can move on after a preliminary examination. District prosecutors handle misdemeanors and those examinations in the district courts. The 16th Judicial Circuit Court keeps the later felony docket. A Roseville case number and caption tie the two paths together. Early Register of Actions entries do the same.
2020 Census QuickFacts puts Roseville at 47,710 residents. Population does not change the route. The notice and case type tell you who holds the record.
Roseville Register of Actions
The Roseville Register of Actions is a dated case-history list. It can show the court, case number, filing date, parties, and judge or division. Status, entries, settings, and public disposition may appear too. A line marked filed records one event. A later order signed, judgment entered, or disposition entry records a different court action.
That history is not the pleading, signed order, judgment, or certified disposition behind each line. To request an actual document, bring its description, the case number, and an approximate date. Bring the copy type the clerk requires too. Knowing the difference keeps a screen result from being mistaken for the whole court file.
- Register of Actions
- The Roseville sequence of public case events and filings.
- Setting
- A scheduled Roseville court event such as arraignment, motion, pretrial, trial, or review.
- Disposition
- The recorded outcome; the signed judgment or order controls its terms.
- Bindover
- A district-court stage that can send a felony record from Roseville to Circuit Court.
Note: A Roseville Register of Actions can identify the event history without making every document or protected detail available online.
Roseville Court Dates and Settings
Roseville's official court page links a calendar route. MiCOURT Court Display posts public daily fields for party name, time, room, and case number. Match a calendar line against the Register of Actions and your notice using the Roseville case number. A listed date may not reflect a later adjournment. It may not reflect a changed room or a division instruction either.
An empty Court Display for a chosen date does not mean every Roseville or Fraser hearing is gone. The display may omit the judge, the setting type, or the method of appearance. Check the local 39th calendar and current notice. Then ask the right division to confirm a room, a reset, or whether you must appear.
| Date | The Roseville event date, not the filing or outcome date. |
|---|---|
| Time | The public calendar time, checked against a current notice. |
| Room | The courtroom or room field when the local event displays it. |
| Case Number | The identifier that ties a Roseville calendar line to case history. |
| Setting Type | A label such as arraignment, pretrial, motion, trial, or compliance hearing. |
Call the right number for your case type. For a Roseville traffic setting, use 586-447-4410; criminal uses 586-447-4430 and civil uses 586-447-4420. Give the division, case number, and setting type when you ask for confirmation.
Roseville Division Phone Lines
Roseville posts direct 39th lines by function. The civil line is 586-447-4420, criminal 586-447-4430, probation 586-447-4425, and traffic 586-447-4410. The Fraser line is 586-447-4472. A Roseville court docket question gets answered fastest at the division that holds that case type.
Before calling, gather the party name, case number, and case type. Add the hearing date and the entry or document you want. The division can then tell a current-setting question apart from a Register of Actions, ordinary-copy, or restricted-access request.

|---|---|
| Civil | 586-447-4420 |
| Criminal | 586-447-4430 |

Roseville Traffic Tickets
Got a Roseville ticket? It belongs to the 39th District Court, along with any civil infraction. Read the citation itself. It names the court and lists the response date. It also describes the alleged violation and lays out your response or hearing options. Payment codes are published by division. Code 1913 covers Roseville traffic and criminal. Code 1912 covers civil. Code 1914 belongs to Fraser. Call the court first, since these operational details can shift.
The All Paid line is 888-604-7888. Expect cash in some situations, including certain suspended-license or bench-warrant cases. Pay under the division your ticket names. Do not swap the traffic, criminal, civil, and Fraser codes around. A court docket shows the case and its date. It never replaces the citation or the official file.
For countywide venue context, see the Macomb traffic court records page. Does a public case-history result for a Roseville citation look unclear? The 39rd clerk's current directions govern.
Roseville Civil Fee Snapshot
The 39th District Court's civil page lays out its local fees in plain bands. Small claims cost $30, $50, or $70 to file. General civil runs $35, $55, $75, or $160. Motions add $20. Copies run $1 per page, and forms are $1 each. The small-claims bands follow the published amount ranges through the stated ceiling. The general-civil table lists a separate figure for cases over $10,000.
Treat these as the posted local numbers, not a guarantee that your next Roseville filing or copy order will cost the same. Ask the 39th District clerk to confirm the current schedule before you pay. A docket tells you which case to ask for. The clerk sets the copy, the certification, and today's charge.
The Roseville civil page is the official source for these published civil fees.
The fee image distinguishes a free public Roseville lookup from a separate clerk-copy request.
Where Roseville Cases End Up
A Roseville case stays at the 39th court unless procedure moves it. A felony can begin there with arraignment and preliminary examination, then shift to the 16th Judicial Circuit Court after bindover. That later Circuit history is not a second Roseville municipal record. Trace the path by searching both court names.
Civil claims within district jurisdiction, small claims, and related district matters stay put at the 39th. Circuit civil cases over $25,000, claims for equitable relief, and qualifying appeals go to the 16th Circuit. Estates, guardianships, conservatorships, protective proceedings, and commitment matters follow the separate Macomb Probate route.

Roseville Search and Counter
Start with the local Roseville links or the calendar. Then layer in a statewide MiCOURT lookup. When a case will not appear, the clerk counter is the fallback. So is the right 39rd District division. They handle nonpublic classifications, current settings, and official copies too. Bring the essentials to the counter. That means the Roseville court name and the case number. Add your party role, the event or document you want, and a rough date.
Why would a search come back empty? Sometimes you queried the wrong court. A spelling variation, a restricted classification, or thin public coverage can do it as well. Juvenile, PPO, sealed, and other protected matters never open up just because someone ran a Roseville name search. Confirm the court and the case type first. Then ask the holding office which access rule controls.
One more distinction matters. A Register of Actions is an event history, nothing more. Need a judgment, a criminal sentence, or a certified disposition? That is a separate clerk request. The holding court can name the proper channel and the current fee.
Public Access to Roseville Court Records
Michigan court files are open by default. Statutes, court rules, and court orders can limit that access, but only those things do. The 39th clerk controls the Roseville district records. Public inspection, ordinary copies, certified items, and excluded material are four different requests. Ask for the right one. Michigan FOIA covers qualifying administrative records only. It cannot override a restriction on a judicial file.
MiCOURT keeps some categories off public display. Juvenile and child-protective matters, PPO matters, mental-illness matters, and adoptions are among them. A sealed or nonpublic Roseville record may be absent or flagged with a restricted indicator. Ask the clerk for the controlling rule or order. Also ask whether a redacted version or access by order exists.
Key Rules:
MCR 8.119 governs public court-record inspection and copying subject to access limits.
MCL 712A.28 places juvenile files in a protected access category.
Michigan FOIA, MCL 15.231 et seq. concerns administrative records, not a route around court-file restrictions.
Note: Before you treat any online entry as the complete official record, confirm the procedure, fee, and access status with the 39th clerk. A docket entry can lag behind the file.
