Process

  • Misdemeanor cases are filed in the Denton County Courts at Law, often within 2-3 months of the arrest. Felony cases take longer and can involve several additional steps. The case will likely be presented to a Grand Jury and if the grand jury returns a true-bill, the case is usually filed in a District Court within a month.
  • All courts require you to appear on your first court date. Subsequent settings may require your in-person appearance. Felony cases require you to appear in court at each court setting.
  • The first court appearance is normally a formality. Unless you have specific bond conditions, you are not required to speak to anyone besides the bailiff. That exchange is normally a short one, where you notify the court of your name and attorney. If you are charged with a felony, most courts require your presence on each court date and the process takes slightly longer.
  • Most prosecutors provide discovery on the date of the first appearance. I will complete a thorough review of all discovery and provide you with all of the options and potential outcomes.
  • I will provide you with all insight and information you need to make a decision that is right - for you.
