What to Expect at Your Hearing
Your first appearance is usually an arraignment, where the charges are read and you enter a plea. Pleading “not guilty” preserves your rights and gives your attorney time to review the evidence, file motions, and negotiate. You generally should not plead guilty at arraignment before speaking with a lawyer.
From there, a case can move through pretrial conferences, motions to suppress evidence, plea negotiations, and, if necessary, trial. Missing a court date can lead to a warrant, so it’s critical to appear and to have counsel guiding each step.
