Michael Warren Court of Appeals

Warren is seeking a seat on the Michigan Court of Appeals 2nd District, which includes Oakland, Macomb, and Genesee counties. He announced his candidacy March 9 against a recent appointee by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

“I believe in the Rule of Law. Too many times we see activist judges legislating from the bench,” Warren stated in a news release. “Judges interpret laws, they do not make them. It is time to make a stand for the Constitution and proper role of the judiciary.”

“We need experienced, proven, constitutional conservatives on the bench. We have seen the negative impact inexperienced, activist, progressive judges can have, and the balance of the Michigan Court of Appeals is at stake in this election,” Warren stated.
