ADM File No. 2006-03

Proposed Amendment of
Rule 6.106 of the
Michigan Court Rules
                 



                     AMENDMENT TO ORDER

     On order of the Court, the order of October 17, 2006, is amended to correct a clerical
error by adding the following proposed new text at the end of subrule 6.106(I)(2)(b):

If the defendant does not within that period satisfy the court that there was compliance with the
conditions of release other than appearance or that compliance was impossible through no fault
of the defendant, the court may continue the revocation order and enter judgment for the state
or local unit of government against the defendant alone for an amount not to exceed the full
amount of the bond, and costs of the court proceedings.

     Staff comment:  The additional language clarifies that a court may continue
the revocation order and enter judgment against a defendant for failure to comply with the
conditions of release or failure to satisfy the court that compliance with those conditions was
impossible.
