Company History
Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart may have best explained the importance of the Sixth Circuit when
he wrote, “The Sixth Federal Judicial Circuit is a cross section of the nation. Extending from the tip of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula to the Mississippi border, it spans the heartland of our country. So it is that the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit is not a regional court but in every sense a national one. Its
workload reflects the pluralism and diversity of our national life.” Learn more about the entire Federal Judiciary at https://www.uscourts.gov/about-federal-courts
