What Will Happen At Your Initial Fairfax County DUI Court Appearance Your first court appearance in most courts is either an arraignment or an initial appearance in federal court. At the arraignment procedure, the court is going to describe to you how you go about getting a court-appointed attorney, if you qualify for one. Additionally, they’ll explain to you that you’re charge with an offense that carries with it the possibility of a jail sentence and because of that you’re entitled to be represented by an attorney. Generally, nothing major is accomplished at this hearing, but your new court date will be scheduled. Many courts will waive this initial arraignment, or initial appearance, if you already have an attorney on board because the reason for having the hearing will no longer be needed. ============================Presented by: J.
