County seat: Atlanta · Population: 9,516
A loved one's arrest in Montmorency County comes with an extra wrinkle that catches families off guard, and I want you to know we've got you. I'm Justin Butler — my dad Gene and I have run Bail My Tail as a family since 1982 — and we've guided plenty of folks through this exact situation around Atlanta. Here's the wrinkle: Montmorency County doesn't run its own jail. The Montmorency County Sheriff's Department makes the arrest, but your loved one is held at the Alpena County Correctional Facility over in Alpena. The case itself, though, stays local — arraignment happens at the 88th District Court on M-32 in Atlanta, where the judge sets bond and handles misdemeanors. If it's a felony and probable cause is found, the matter is bound over to the 26th Circuit Court, also on M-32 in Atlanta, for trial. That split between where they're held and where the case lives is exactly the kind of thing we sort out for you. Under Michigan court rules a judge may set a personal recognizance bond, an unsecured appearance bond, a 10% cash bond, or a cash or surety bond. Our premium is the state-regulated 10%, the same everywhere, and we never close — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call Bail My Tail: Flint 810-234-5776, Detroit 313-345-9255, or toll-free 877-869-8245.
