Michigan Man Drives to Virtual Court Hearing with Suspended License: Judge Revokes Bond

A Michigan man, Corey Harris, made headlines after he appeared in a virtual court hearing while driving with a suspended license on May 15, 2023. The incident occurred during a Zoom hearing for charges related to an earlier arrest in Pittsfield Township.

Harris initially attempted to explain that he was pulling into his doctor's office when confronted by Judge Cedric Simpson about driving during the proceeding. However, once Harris parked, he admitted to not having a valid driver's license.

The judge revoked Harris' bond and ordered him to turn himself in to Washtenaw County Jail by 6 p.m. that day, with failure to comply resulting in a bench warrant with no bond.

This incident highlights the importance of adhering to legal requirements, even during virtual court hearings. It also serves as a reminder that individuals should prioritize their safety and the safety of others while engaging in virtual activities.
