Chief Justice Maura D. Corrigan began the dedication for the Hall of Justice on October 8, 2002 with these words:
"Welcome, everyone, to this very special session, this most extraordinary session, this most amazing session of the Michigan Supreme Court. Our purpose today is to dedicate the Hall of Justice to the people of Michigan. This courthouse is the peoples’ building. It is here to do the peoples’ business in the third branch of government. My colleagues and I, judges and Justices of Michigan, are privileged to share this historic day with you. The Justices of the Michigan Supreme Court for many generations dreamed of standing where we stand today before this building that so magnificently symbolizes the role of law. Today the dream of our predecessors is no longer deferred. Today the dream is realized."
