Re: drug charges
There are statutes that regulate the amount of time a person may be incarcerated before a hearing takes place. There are different times for different circumstances. There can also be extenuating circumstances that can change that amount of time. What were your charges, have you had a preliminary hearing, arraignment, has bail been set? When were you formally charged? Has a date been set for your trial?
