how long does a judge have to sign probable cause declaration to keep suspect in custody in ca?
the united states supreme court held in county of riverside v. v. mclaughlin (1991) 500 u.s. 44, that a person arrested without a warrant is entitled to a judicial determination of probable cause within 48 hours, including weekends and holidays.

it appears that ? was involved in some kind of civil custody proceeding, which is different from the detention of those arrested for criminal conduct.
You need to hire a lawyer immediately. The police could be interrogating him and he can be confessing to serious crimes It means for some reason the case could not proceed at the time it was set. You need to speak to the prosecutor or investigator as a witness Tough to say without knowing more. They could have re-indicted your case or it could be on an arraignment calendar just to keep track of the case since it is so old. If you have a lawyer, he or she should be able to tell you what is going on. after 8 week u can go for scan Hopefully, you called the police right when this occurred and have a police report. It will be up to the solicitor's office on whether or not to file charges. Unfortunately, this person may be judgment proof. This means that even if you were to sue them and successfully obtain a judgment, you may have no way of actually collecting against that judgment. What have you done on the citation? Has a conviction been reported to the DPS? If so, you may have obstacles in obtaining your driver's license. If you have not made an appearance in court yet, call a local lawyer to see what can be done to avoid a conviction. Good luck. Under the current state of the law in Massachusetts the police are not required to inform a suspect in a dui case that he/she has the right to consult with a lawyer before submitting to a field sobriety test. A person can simply refuse to perform the tests, but the police are not required to tell a suspect that he/she has the right to consult with a lawyer before submitting to a field sobriety test. With reference to a breathalyzer test in the police station (not the portable test in the field), the police are required to advise a person under arrest for dui that he/she has the right to a comparison test at his/her own expense and the police are required to advise what the consequences of refusing to take a breathalyzer test are (loss of license from 180 days to life). In most instances the breathalyzer is offered and either taken or refused after Miranda rights are administered at the booking desk. You need to discuss the details of this with your lawyer and you need to see the booking video if it exists. the presumption of continuance of life is contained in section \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ of the evidence act. I agree with Mr. Burdett. You are facing criminal charges and you should retain a local attorney to assist you. Good luck! I've filed two Petitions for Writs of Certiorari in 33 years, and I can't imagine how you'd have a prayer for relief without a lawyer and a specialized Supreme Court printer. The booklets are intentionally weird-sized, the print and formatting is challenging, and service and filing require special skill. The lawyer does the drafting, but I relied on the printer for the filing. Nevertheless, the Court receives many, many pro se prisoner petitions annually, and once in a few blue moons, one gets granted cert. According to The Brethern, clerks are assigned to scour through the many pencil-scripted pro se petitions for a diamond in the rough, so at least a law clerk they might read them regardless of compliance with formalities. I suggest that you call the Clerk's Office and ask your procedural details. Unlike much busier and underfinanced city court clerks, the Supreme Court clerk's office tends to be quite polite and even helpful on the phone. 


Good luck!
