If you are an adult and chared with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, the State had only 90 days in which to indict you or you are entitled to a PR bond or a bond you can make. As far as court dates, they do not have to keep putting your case on the docket but you should have a lawyer working on the case whether hired or appointed.

Trial settings vary based on the capacity of the court's docket.
