Quick Answer
What is Michigan form DC 107?
Form DC 107 is the last step in a Michigan eviction. After you already have a judgment for possession, this asks the court to order a court officer to physically remove the tenant.
Who files it
The landlord who won the judgment of possession.
Where it goes
The district court that entered the judgment.
Filing fee
A fee is charged for the order plus a separate court officer service fee — amounts vary by court, so confirm with the clerk.
What you need before you start
- Your case number and a copy of the judgment for possession
- A current payment ledger if the judgment allowed the tenant to pay and stay
- The fee for the order and the court officer
How to complete and file form DC 107
- 1
Wait out the period the judgment gives the tenant to move or pay — usually at least 10 days.
- 2
Complete DC 107 and confirm the tenant did not comply with the judgment.
- 3
File it with the district court and pay the fee.
- 4
Once the judge signs, deliver the order to a court officer or the sheriff to schedule the eviction.
- 5
Be present or have someone present on the eviction date as the court officer requires.
Mistakes that get DC 107 rejected
- Applying before the compliance period in the judgment has expired
- Letting the order lapse — under MCR 4.201(N) the application generally has to be made within 56 days of the judgment
- Getting the signed order but never scheduling the court officer, so nothing happens
