Re: hearing
You need to call the Clerk of that court. District court hears prelim hearings and actual trials for misdemeanors and some felony charges. The clerk can tell you which - give the clerk the case number on the summons.

Since each person's situation is different, it would be impossible and unethical to give legal advice without a full conference as an attorney/client relationship would require, obtaining in-depth facts particular to that case.
