Developing community partnerships
Macomb County
Judges gathered recently with representatives of mental health agencies,
law enforcement and other community partners for a workshop at the
Macomb Community College campus in Warren. Macomb County Circuit Court

Court Chief Judge Jacob Femminineo Jr., 39th District Court Judge Alyia
Hakim, Circuit Court Chief Judge James Biernat Jr., Probate Court Judge
Sara Schimke and 40th District Court Chief Judge Mark Fratarcangeli.
Supported by the National Center for State Courts and the State Court
Administrative Office, the two-day workshop was aimed at determining
where individuals with high needs could be matched with community
services to avoid entry into the legal system.
