Jurisdiction

Divisions
Address: County Annex Building, 719 W. Chisholm St., Alpena, MI 49707. Phone (989) 354-9650, fax (989) 354-9782, email probate@alpenacounty.org. Standard EPIC-era probate jurisdiction (wills, estates, guardianships, conservatorships, mental health commitment); juvenile/child-protection/adoption handling not specified on the pages fetched -- likely under the Circuit Court's Family Division per that court's own page language (custody/paternity/juvenile delinquency/abuse-neglect/adoptions all listed there), consistent with Alpena being a Circuit-Family-Division county rather than a Probate-handles-juvenile county.

Notes
Several alpenacounty.org subpages (the general /31/Courts index and /447/Circuit-Court-Resources) returned persistent robots.txt fetch failures this pass even though other pages on the same domain (/188, /317, /332, /544) loaded fine -- a page-specific block pattern, not a whole-domain outage.
