If arrested and incarcerated, how long does the court have to give you an initial hearing on a misdemeanor charge?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Terry Alan Nelson (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Nelson & Lawless
If in custody, you must be arraigned within two court days of your arrest, which means weekends and holidays don't count. If not timely arraigned, you must be released. They can then re-arrest you and start over. A little free advice: exercise the 5th Amendment right to SHUT UP and do NOT talk to police or anyone about the case except with and through an attorney. You are always entitled to represent yourself in court. Whether you should is a different issue. The conventional wisdom is that an attorney will be able to do a better job and get a better outcome. Prosecutors and judges don't like dealing with ProPers, unless you are simply pleading guilty, not defending the case. Feel free to contact me.

Dismissal without prejudice

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Criminal Law lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
When something is dismissed without prejudice, that means that another complaint can be filed.  If the matter was dismissed with prejudice, that means another complaint cannot be filed.  So no, it does not violate double jeopardy, which only means you cannot be tried for the same crime twice.  Getting something dismissed means there was no trial.
