Michigan Stipulation and Order to Allow Participation by Interactive Video Technology (IT) in a Criminal Case is a document used in Michigan courts to allow the use of video conferencing or other technology for criminal proceedings. It is commonly used for remote arraignments, hearings, and plea agreements. It is a legally binding document that must be signed by all parties in the criminal case. There are two types of Michigan Stipulation and Order to Allow Participation by IT in a Criminal Case: 1. Standard Stipulation and Order. This is the most common type of stipulation and order used in Michigan courts. It allows the defendant to appear remotely via video conferencing for their arraignment, hearings, or plea agreement. 2. Expedited Stipulation and Order. This type of stipulation and order is used for time-sensitive criminal cases. It allows for the expedited use of video conferencing technology for hearing or plea agreements without all the parties needing to be in the same room.
