How does mediation work in Gratiot County?

Gratiot County and Clinton County together make up Michigan's twenty-ninth judicial circuit, which has 2 judges [1]. The two circuit judges alternate weeks between the counties, and questions on Gratiot cases go to the Gratiot County Circuit Court Clerk at 214 E. Center Street in Ithaca ((989) 875-5215) [2]. The circuit's Administrative Order 2019-04 adopts a friend of the court ADR plan offering domestic relations mediation, facilitative information-gathering conferences and joint meetings for custody, parenting time and support disputes, after screening each case for domestic violence [3]. Our three Ithaca mediators appear on rosters kept by other Michigan circuits, including Berrien County's civil and domestic relations lists [4][5] and Macomb County's 16th Circuit list [6].

Court-connected mediation in Michigan: Michigan circuit courts keep their own lists of mediators who met court-rule training requirements, and court clerks appoint only from those lists. Some courts encourage parties to pick their own mediator; the court rules themselves were not reviewed.

Private mediation in Michigan: No state license for private mediators was found in the sources reviewed. A State Bar of Michigan ethics opinion says a lawyer-mediator may not draft all the divorce papers for both parties while acting only as mediator.
