When I go into Macomb County court site:

Search Results - CourtView Justice Solutions

all I'm getting is a case that closed in 2015.

Anyone have better luck then me?

TIA!

 

@cybervampira - I have your name in my notes to contact for this case.

Anything you can find for next hearing date? TIA!

I'm going thru my list to re-print it to make it legible! So I might call on you on a couple of more cases - if you don't mind!

Happy Saturday!

 

Oh Niner, there goes my life!

If I remember right, we didn’t have a link for court records? The link above only shows an old case. Maybe someone has access to Pacer or some other court records database?

 

@MsFacetious - do you have access to PACER?

If so, could you look up this case, please?

Macomb County in Michigan. TIA!

 

Man charged after sister, her boyfriend found dead in Clinton Township shed will stand trial

CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. - A 24-year-old man accused of killing his sister and her boyfriend and leaving their bodies in a Clinton Township shed was bound over for trial Wednesday morning.
[.....]
A preliminary hearing was held Wednesday, where multiple witnesses testified, including family members and an investigator. The court found enough probable cause to bound Marzejka over for trial.

and unfortunately, the article doesn't give the next court hearing....

going to call on @cybervampira - can you get into Michigan?

 

I‘m lacking that superpower with court records. Do you have a link?

 

https://circuitcourt.macombgov.org/circuitcourt-courtview

after this page it says no access - maybe you'll have better luck!

 

I think I checked this link (see upthread) with no good result and suggested someone with PACER access should look this up.

 

I'll try @MsFacetious - again - I believe she has PACER.

 

Hi @Niner - I have a PACER account but can't find anything using his name. Have a case number? Is this in state court? State court dockets are not on PACER.

 

The only case I found is . Macomb County Jail #2015-013932-MI, but that is closed.
Full name: Robert Leo Marzejka

Are you sure you have the "z"s and "jk" in the right place? LOL!

 

Ah - found an article with the next date.

Police: Man used hammer, taped bags over heads to kill sister, her boyfriend


Robert Marzejka will now head to trial on all charges. He's due back in court March 25. He faces life in prison.
