how long after an arrest do the courts have to convict you?

As long as they need.  It must only be "reasonable."

depends on what possessions you had.  In some cases things like ciggarets, lighters etc. are not returned.  you should be able to go to the jail and get your possessions. all you do is sign for it. if you dont claim your belongings within a certain amount of time it will be discarded. you should call the jail and speak to the property room.

It depends on what country you live in. If in the US, then it depends on what state you live in and/or the juristiction of the case (ie., federal, state, county...)

this tests you for evrything you have done. pot stays in your body for about 30 days, coke for about 72-80 hours and ackohol for about 12 hours, sorry for the spelling.  other drugs i am not sure.if you are on probation you  have probably spent time in jail already.  which is more important , your drugs or your freedom.  do you want to order pizza or have a jail meal.  do you want to visit your family in person or send them jail mark cards.  its your decision , be strong.

Bizarre question, and difficult to answer without knowing at least what country you're in.\n\nWe'll assume you're in the US, and we'll further assume you're in California (though it's probably the same throughout the states).\n\nIf you're arraigned, the legal process has begun.  The case will not "expire" and if you fail to appear for further proceedings, you'll more than likely be charged with a failure to appear (FTA) and an arrest warrant will be issued.\n\nArrest warrants, by the way, are good forever.

It depends on what the judge set at the trial.  It could be anywhere from 2-5 years.  You need to find out what time frame the judge gave.

Well it depends. Maybe 6 to 8 years. You could get out before then. It all depends on the jury. good luck!

It really depends on your state statutes.\n\nBut generally it can take as little as a few weeks to a couple years.\n\nBe sure to answer the summons so they do not get a default judgment against you.\n\nLearn your rights, learn how to fight a law suit.\n\nIf you are not up to fighting on your own, get a lawyer. But I would still recommend that you learn your rights.

you'll have to call the jail. They will tell you what you need to know.

As soon as you have been tried and convicted, the felony is entered into the law enforcement data banks as soon as the paperwork can be processed. This can take a few days and has allowed for a few slip-ups in the judicial processes being used to assess the felon, if he is moved around a lot before being permanently placed to do his sentence. I have heard of convicted killers serving part of their time in minimum security before the paperwork caught up with them.

You most certainly can until such time that you are examined by a psychiatrist that you were having said episode. The psychiatrist may have to testify in Court as to your mental satate at the time of the arrest.

no they don't, a warrent officer will come to your door and either bail you to appear in court or arrest you on the spot and take you to court to appear that day. this all depends on the offence you have comitted. you can try contacting your local court to see if one has been issued against you........ good luck

It all depends on what type of conviction (misdemeanor or felony), in what court (state or federal), and how much time has passed since you were convicted (a certain date) and completed all of the Court's orders (most likely a different date), for example, completed probation, paying all fines or restitution.\n\nSome more information please.

If it is considered evidence they can keep it till after the trial is over. If there was no trial or the investigation is complete and you have been sentenced to jail, you get it when you get released. But if you weren't sent to jail then you should have gotten the items back already.

I had my door kicked in by the police and my house was destroyed during their search. They cut open my couch, put holes in my walls looking for drugs that were not there. \n\nThe address on the search warrant showed the house next door.\nOOPS\n\nThen they arrested me an took me to jail for 20 hours to make sure "that I couldn't tip off the neighbor that the warrant was really for"\n\n\n4 years later I just happened to get called for a jury duty with a case that was almost identical to what happened to me and quite frankly I would have voted to hang the police in that case.

First you are not clear about what you are asking\n\nOften if you are arrested and can not make bail, you will be held till the trial date.  then if the judge finds you guilty, you may be released with time served, and go free.  Or you may be found not guilty and go free.
