Criminal Process

Below is a brief and simplified explanation of the criminal process in Texas. The process varies depending on the jurisdiction and nature of the criminal charge. No matter the jurisdiction or charge,

Typically, a criminal case begins when a police officer arrests a person and accuses him of committing a crime. Within a specific time, the person goes before a magistrate. The magistrate officially informs the person of the charge he faces and his bond amount. The person can now be released on bond. Depending on various factors, the person may need the services of a bail bondsman. For some minor cases, the jail may release a person based on their signature and promise to appear in court.

If the person cannot afford the bond set by the magistrate, we file a Motion to lower the bond. We have a hearing in front of the District Judge to aggressively argue to get the accused out of jail.

If the grand jury issues a true bill of indictment, the person must attend court to dispose of the case. The case will be disposed of by dismissal, trial, or plea bargain. The next phase is sentencing if the person pleads, or the jury finds him guilty. Sentencing can include incarceration, probation, fines, court costs, community service, and other requirements.
