Video shows man with suspended license zooming into a Michigan court hearing while driving.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — A Michigan man who appeared virtually at a Washtenaw County court hearing earlier this month was ordered by a judge to turn himself in after his camera caught him driving despite a suspended license.

The incident occurred during a hearing on May 15. Corey Harris, 44, was scheduled to attend the hearing on charges related to an earlier arrest in Pittsfield Township, south of Ann Arbor.

A video of the hearing shows the moment Harris entered the hearing, visibly behind the wheel of a moving car. Michigan has a law that prohibits the use of cell phones and other electronic devices while driving.

After Harris joined the hearing via Zoom, Judge J. Cedric Simpson immediately asked Harris if he was driving.

“Actually, I’m driving to my doctor’s office, so just give me a second. I’m parking,” Harris replied.

As Harris continued driving on camera, Simpson could be heard saying “Wow.” Then he said, “Maybe I’m not understanding something. This is a case of driving without a license… and he was just driving and didn’t have a license?”

Harris remained on camera, a look of grim realization on his face, as attorneys confirmed to Simpson that he had just announced to the entire courtroom that he was driving without a valid license.

“I don’t even know why he would do that,” Simpson said. “So the defendant’s bail is revoked in this matter. The defendant must turn himself in at the Washtenaw County Jail by 6 p.m. today. If he does not turn himself in, a no-bail warrant will be issued.”

Harris continued the broadcast over the courtroom Zoom while tilting his head back in disbelief and saying, “Oh my God.”

Harris was released from custody two days later and is scheduled to appear in court again on June 5.
