The actual case file jacket is sent back to the Clerk of The Court's office and then from there it is sent to the judge who will ultimately be assigned to hear your case. Judge's are usually (but not always) assigned cases on a rotating basis.

After a preliminary hearing, a judge may send your case to trial if there is sufficient evidence to proceed. Alternatively, if the evidence is weak, the case may be dismissed. In some instances, the judge could also refer the case to a grand jury for further review and potential indictment.

What happen when a guilty verdict in a criminal case?

When a defendant is found guilty, it means that the jury (or sometimes judge) believe that there was proof beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed whatever crime he/she was being charged with.Generally, the judge will schedule the next court hearing, known as "Sentencing", and a notice will be sent to the Court Services Office (or a similar department).The defendant may have to speak with a Court Services Officer. If the defendant does not know whether to do this or not, they should ask their attorney.The Court Services Office is going to draft a report of the defendant's criminal history, known as a "Pre-Sentencing Investigation" (or PSI), and send that to the judge.At sentencing, the judge will determine the correct punishment that the defendant need to face for their crime. Whatever punishment the judge decides will be carried out immediately after the hearing, unless specified otherwise by the judge.


Can a juvenile judge send someone off if they ask for a lawyer during the hearing?

Send someone off? Generally in a juvenile proceeding, the juvenile is provided with a lawyer if they don't bring one. If the juvenile does not have an attorney and requests one during the proceedings, the judge will normally stop the proceeding and allow time for the juvenile to obtain an attorney. (Of course, the judge will not grant this recess if the juvenile has previously denied offers of counsel, and it appears that the request is only being made to delay the proceedings.)


What is the penalty for violating pretrial services in Virginia?

AnswerI worked as a Pre-Trial officer for several years. If you fail to comply with any of the terms or conditions of your Pre-Trial agreement, your case officer can send a letter to the court outlining what conditions you violated. A judge will then issue what is called a "Capias Failure to Comply with Court Order." This is a warrant that will result in you being arrested and brought before the judge to explain why you violated your Pre-Trial agreement. The judge can then at his/her discretion revoke your bond, and you will have to sit in jail until your trial unless your lawyer can get the judge to let you back out at a separate bail hearing.

Can you email a criminial court judge with a concern?

Perhaps, if the judge chooses to make his/her email address available to you. However, communication outside of court proceedings cannot be used in your favor at a trial (whether or not you are the defendant), and if it's related to an ongoing case it could actually get you in trouble. -- If this is in regards to your own case, you should have your attorney handle all communication relating to the case. If you're appearing pro se, you should be sending a copy of any communication you send to the judge to the prosecutor as well (and include the fact that you are doing so at the bottom of the e-mail / letter, so that the judge knows that the communication meets ethics standards). If this is in regards to a friend/family member's case, you should talk to their attorney and find out if you e-mailing the judge is wise/appropriate (the attorney may offer to hand deliver a letter to the judge for you if he thinks it will be helpful). If this is in regards to a case in which you are the victim or know the victim, you should leave a short message for the prosecutor handling the case that includes the case name, your name, your phone number, and what you'd like to tell the judge. If you aren't involved, but just have an opinion about a case, you should know that the judge will likely be barred from discussing the case with you.


What do you I if the custodial parent is not obeying any of the court orders for my rights in Houston Texas?

File a motion for contempt, list all violations, dates, times and attached any exhibits, receipts, text messages, e-mails, etc, that you have to support your allegations. Get hearing time from the Judge, coordinate the hearing with the custodial parent, or her attorney, prepare your notice for hearing, send to custodial parent/attorney, and let her or him have it!! Good luck.
