WHAT HAPPENS AT THE FIRST APPEARANCE HEARING?
- Find out what the charges are.
- Determine if the police had enough legal reason to make the arrest (probable cause).
- Give the right to legal counsel.
- Set conditions of release (bond amount, etc.).
It’s always a good idea to get a criminal defense lawyer involved as soon as possible if ever facing criminal charges.
Having a criminal defense lawyer can prevent someone from making the situation worse by protecting their rights.
