You only have 1 preliminary hearing in which a trial is set with 20 days for court case, 10 days if it is a felony. Evidence at preliminary hearing is only presented once according to your law. You can appear for setting of trial date numerous times. In my county there is an average of 12-14 month delay for trial \n( continuances ).

Due to our constitution, basically no criminal charge is summary. All are subject to a trial and require an indictment of some sort. Some do not require a grand jury indictment, and this is likely one of them. The amount has everything to do with what you are charged with. The weight of the drug determines whether they charge you with simple possession or trafficking possession (if you intended to sell it) and what degree of possession.

You need to call the jail for that information.  In some cases you have to make an appointment.  Each county or state has different rules.

If you are facing an indictment on a felony offense, you really should be talking to an attorney.  If you have a friend under indictment, your friend should check with an attorney.\n\nRULE 7. The Indictment and the Information\n\n(A) Use of indictment or information.  A felony that may be punished by death or life imprisonment shall be prosecuted by indictment.  All other felonies shall be prosecuted by indictment, except that after a defendant has been advised by the court of the nature of the charge against the defendant and of the defendant's right to indictment, the defendant may waive that right in writing and in open court.\n\nWhere an indictment is waived, the offense may be prosecuted by information, unless an indictment is filed within fourteen days after the date of waiver.  If an information or indictment is not filed within fourteen days after the date of waiver, the defendant shall be discharged and the complaint dismissed.  This division shall not prevent subsequent prosecution by information or indictment for the same offense.\n\nA misdemeanor may be prosecuted by indictment or information in the court of common pleas, or by complaint in the juvenile court, as defined in the Rules of Juvenile Procedure, and in courts inferior to the court of common pleas.  An information may be filed without leave of court.\n\n(B) Nature and contents.  The indictment shall be signed in accordance with Crim. R. 6(C) and (F) and contain a statement that the defendant has committed a public offense specified in the indictment.  The information shall be signed by the prosecuting attorney or in the name of the prosecuting attorney by an assistant prosecuting attorney and shall contain a statement that the defendant has committed a public offense specified in the information.  The statement may be made in ordinary and concise language without technical averments or allegations not essential to be proved.  The statement may be in the words of the applicable section of the statute, provided the words of that statute charge an offense, or in words sufficient to give the defendant notice of all the elements of the offense with which the defendant is charged.  It may be alleged in a single count that the means by which the defendant committed the offense are unknown or that the defendant committed it by one or more specified means.  Each count of the indictment or information shall state the numerical designation of the statute that the defendant is alleged to have violated.  Error in the numerical designation or omission of the numerical designation shall not be ground for dismissal of the indictment or information, or for reversal of a conviction, if the error or omission did not prejudicially mislead the defendant.\n\n(C) Surplusage.  The court on motion of the defendant or the prosecuting attorney may strike surplusage from the indictment or information.\n\n(D) Amendment of indictment, information, or complaint.  The court may at any time before, during, or after a trial amend the indictment, information, complaint, or bill of particulars, in respect to any defect, imperfection, or omission in form or substance, or of any variance with the evidence, provided no change is made in the name or identity of the crime charged.  If any amendment is made to the substance of the indictment, information, or complaint, or to cure a variance between the indictment, information, or complaint and the proof, the defendant is entitled to a discharge of the jury on the defendant's motion, if a jury has been impaneled, and to a reasonable continuance, unless it clearly appears from the whole proceedings that the defendant has not been misled or prejudiced by the defect or variance in respect to which the amendment is made, or that the defendant's rights will be fully protected by proceeding with the trial, or by a postponement thereof to a later day with the same or another jury.  Where a jury is discharged under this division, jeopardy shal

That isn't how it works.  Statutes of limitations serve to prevent causes of action from being brought too long after an alleged offense or tort was committed.  For example, if someone assaults you, you can't sue them 20 years later, you have to do it relatively quickly.  The exact length specified by the statute will vary from state to state.  Statutes of limitations don't have anything to do with expunging criminal records.\n\nThat being said, Texas law only allows criminal records to be expunged under very limited circumstances, mostly if you didn't do it or there are other irregularities.  For example, if you are arrested, but they don't bring a charge against you, you can get that expunged.  Same goes if you're acquitted, either by a trial court or on appeal.  But if you are convicted of a felony, and the conviction stands, you're pretty much stuck with it.

The order is indictment, conviction, then sentencing - it's usually only a week or two between conviction and sentencing depending on the type case. Often same day for lesser charges.

Everytime I get arrested(which is quite often and matter of fact the last time was Wednesday...Just got out Thursday morning) I have my "First Apperance"(which is usually held inside the jail somewhere) the next day or two, which at First Apperance they give you the chance to bond out and sentence you. You don't get your 'real' court date(in the courthouse) until at least two weeks later, but sometimes it can take up to a month or more. It sounds like what happened to your friend is 1) He couldn't make bond 2) They didn't issue him a bond, which means he has to stay till his 'real court date' at that time they will either give him time served and let him out or give him probation or 3) He already went to court and has to do his time period

Maybe he already had one and the outcome was no bail?\n\nWithout more information, there isn't much else to add.  Maryland requires that all arrestees are presented to a District Court Official within 24 hours of arrest.  Additionally, all arrestees receive a bail review hearing on the next business day following the arrest (Monday morning for those arrested Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday).  Some states may have 72 hour requirements - but every offender usually receives some bail review hearing following arrest.  \n\nIf an offender is held without bail due to domestic violence laws, a lawyer has to schedule a bail review hearing which will either reduce the bail, release the offender on recognizance with conditions or keep the no bail status.  At least in MD, violation of probation is not a crime and serves as a retainer to keep an offender in custody until the violation of probation hearing.
