What is the 51st District Court?

The 51st District Court, located in Waterford, is in charge of handling all Waterford misdemeanor cases, including drinking and driving charges, owi, dui, driving without a license, domestic assault, possession of marijuana, and many others.  The 51st District Court is presided over by Judge Richard Kuhn and Judge Todd Fox. As far as felonies go, we’ve handled some of the most serious cases ever to come through Waterford.  

The Waterford Judges

Both Judge Fox and Judge Kuhn are very fair and expect criminal defense attorneys to be prepared. Both are very receptive to heavy felony examination stage litigation and have no problems tossing out a bad felony case. However, the criminal defense attorney has to provide the judges with the proper legal arguments because both Waterford Judges are hands-off and won’t do the defense attorney’s job for them. With that in mind, if you have a felony Waterford case, contact us today to talk about how we can help.
