Common questions about Criminal Defense in Arizona
Answered by Arizona Attorney Search Network
What is an arraignment in Arizona criminal court?
An arraignment is the first formal court appearance after charges are filed - typically within 24-48 hours of arrest. The defendant hears the charges, enters a plea (almost always 'not guilty' at this stage), and the court addresses bail or release conditions. For felonies, the equivalent first appearance is the Initial Appearance, with arraignment in Superior Court occurring after preliminary hearing or grand jury indictment.
What rights do I lose with a felony conviction in Arizona?
A felony conviction results in loss of voting rights (until completion of the sentence; restored automatically for first-time felons under ARS § 13-907), the right to possess firearms (ARS § 13-3101), the right to serve on a jury, and certain professional licenses. Some rights are restored automatically; others require a petition to the court under ARS § 13-908.
How long does a criminal case take in Arizona?
Misdemeanors typically resolve within 60-180 days from arraignment. Felonies most commonly take 6-18 months from filing to resolution; complex or multi-defendant cases can run 2 or more years. Defendants have speedy-trial rights under Rule 8 of the Arizona Rules of Criminal Procedure: in custody felony cases must be tried within 150 days of arraignment, out-of-custody within 180 days, with limited extensions.
