The 25th District Court serves three Wayne County cities: Lincoln Park, Ecorse, and River Rouge. If your rental property is in any of those communities, summary proceedings are filed at this court at 1475 Cleophus Parkway, Lincoln Park, MI 48146, (313) 382-8603. The court is accessible via MiFILE (mifile.courts.michigan.gov), Michigan's statewide e-filing system, which is used by attorneys to submit landlord-tenant complaints and receive service notifications electronically; a separate proof of service is not required if the opposing party is also a registered MiFILE user. Covering three distinct cities gives this court a moderately active landlord-tenant docket, so filing promptly after the notice period expires is advisable to secure an earlier hearing slot.
