THE ARRAIGNMENT
At arraignment, your lawyer will enter plea for you for “not guilty” and get the “complaint.” It’s the “charging document” which the prosecutor files in the court.
PRE-TRIAL HEARING
After arraignment, the court now has set your case for pre-trial hearing. There might be more than a pre-trial; if your case isn’t resolved, then case will be put for jury trial.
JURY TRIAL
About 5% criminal trials only go to the jury trial ever. Most cases are dismissed or settled long before trial. If your case can’t be settled before the trial, you’ll need to present for jury trial. We will make sure that jury hears all the evidences.
AFTER TRIAL
If everything goes well, you’ll have your DUI case dismissed and will be found to be “not guilty.” If you’re found guilty, then you’ll need to go to the DUI educations classes, might be put on probation and you’ll have some fines to pay.
