Legal Question in Criminal Law in Michigan

My neice was charged with resisting arrest. I dont know the whole story to be true I wasn't there.

Her boyfriend was cut by her mother. My neice apparently, as the police entered the home got up to try to restrain her mother and the police grabbed her, 3 or 4. The boyfriend implied she was the one that cut him, also written in the police report. The poloce arrested my neice for resisting and I dont know the charge for her mother. Is there a law that states she cannot be bonded out until she sees a judge? Her mother the person that assaulted the boyfriend with a knife is out on bond. How is that?

She must be arraigned within 72 hours. At the arraignment, the Judge/magistrate will set bond and will inform her of the charges against her. She should plea not guilty at the arraignment. We highly recommended that you retain an attorney at this stage. Feel free to contact our criminal defense law firm, Attorneys of Michigan, PLLC. at 248.865.4700, ask for Daniel Hajji.

Your niece should bond out of jail as quickly as possible. She will likely be arraigned today. She should NOT make any statements to anybody about the case. She should not try to discuss her case at her arraignment. She should promptly call an experienced, aggressive attorney as soon as she is out of jail. Our attorneys have handled hundreds of cases involving domestic issues and/or resisting arrest.
