Felony & Misdemeanor Defense

Marysville’s Arrest FAQs

Marysville Municipal Court’s jurisdiction is limited; the judges of this court preside over misdemeanor and gross misdemeanor arrests made by Marysville, Arlington or Lake Stevens police officers. Since Marysville does not have its own prosecutor’s office it contracts with a private law firm named Zachor & Thomas who will be the prosecutor for the case.

However if you are arrested by a Snohomish County Sheriff’s Deputy or Washington State Trooper your case will become a “state case” and will be heard in the Snohomish County District Court’s Cascade Division located in Arlington, WA.

All felony case arrests made in the county are considered state cases as well and are heard in the Snohomish County Superior Court located in Everett. Washington State cases for arrests made in Snohomish County are prosecuted by the Snohomish County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office located in downtown Everett.
