  Mrs. DINGELL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Michigan's 
33rd District Court for fifty years of dedicated service. The court's 
efforts continue to improve and protect the communities of Southeastern 
Michigan.
  Originally located above the Trenton Police Station, the 33rd 
District Court was established on January 1, 1969. The court and its 
staff work diligently in coordination with law enforcement officials to 
protect Southeastern Michigan, overseeing criminal and civil trials. 
Beyond its judicial duties, the 33rd District Court offers a wealth of 
services for defendants, offenders, and students. Through the Sobriety 
Court program, over one-hundred individuals suffering from severe 
alcohol and drug abuse have received supervision, assistance, and 
treatment, dramatically reducing the recidivism rates of participants. 
The 33rd District Court is also highly involved in education, offering 
multiple programs to teach students about the criminal justice system.
  Regarded for its accessibility, timeliness, and courtesy, the 33rd 
District Court has faithfully served the community for fifty years. The 
efforts of the court and its staff highlight a deep commitment to 
justice and public safety. We thank the 33rd District Court for its 
exceptional service to Southeastern Michigan and its continued work in 
reducing crime. The 33rd District Court stands as a role model in 
criminal justice and its distinguished reputation is a testament to its 
impact on the community and the state of Michigan.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Michigan's 
33rd District Court for fifty years of exemplary service. The court's 
work in criminal justice, reform, and education are worthy of 
commendation.
