What happens after the detention hearing?
During the Detention Hearing you will be given instructions about what the next step is in your particular case. If the matter is set for a further hearing you will need to meet with one or more of our office staff if we have been appointed for you. If the minor is released from custody before any court appearance, he/she will be notified of the court date by mail. Once you receive notice of your court date you should contact the Juvenile Office of our department so that we can begin the investigation process.
