Michigan Instructions for Request a Change of Venue is a legal procedure that allows a plaintiff or defendant to move a court case from one court to another within the same county or from one county to another. There are two types of Michigan Instructions for Request a Change of Venue: (1) Civil Change of Venue and (2) Criminal Change of Venue. For Civil Change of Venue, both the plaintiff and defendant must agree to the change of venue. The plaintiff must file a motion in the court where the case is currently pending, along with the signed agreement of both parties. The motion must include reasons for the change of venue. The judge may grant or deny the motion based on a review of the evidence and arguments presented. For Criminal Change of Venue, an attorney from the defendant's side must file a motion in the court where the case is currently pending. The motion must include reasons for the change of venue and may be granted or denied based on the evidence and arguments presented. In either case, the court may decide to transfer the case to another court in the same county or in another county. The court will issue an order for the change of venue, which will be forwarded to the new court. The new court will then assume jurisdiction for the case.
