It is time to begin working with your lawyer and other members of your defense team on your case. Your attorney will receive a Scheduling Order from the court. This document will have all of the important dates for your case. It will include when motions are due and court appearances, including your trial date. Your attorney will also request and receive discovery from the prosecutor and begin investigating your case. It is important that you cooperate with your lawyer and any member of your defense team.
