The 26th Judicial Circuit Friend of the Court is a multi-county office that services Alpena and Montmorency counties. The Friend of the Court is the collection, enforcement and investigative arm of the Circuit Court in the area of domestic relations. The action by the office is controlled by the court order. Orders are issued by the court after the Judge has made a determination and a written document is signed and then filed with the County Clerk. To obtain an order from the Court, the issue has to be brought before the Court through formal legal action. This is accomplished through private attorneys, sometimes the Prosecuting Attorney or by action of one of the parents. The Friend of the Court does not become involved until an action is filed with the Court. Duties of the Friend of the Court are defined by Michigan Law.
