Post-Arrest Jail Time in Utah Once you have been booked, the prosecutor will have 72 hours before deciding whether or not file charges against you. Within 48-72 hours after charges have been filed, you will be taken before a judge for your arraignment and bail hearing.
If you are taken into custody in Utah and can't afford bail, you will be held in jail until your trial date. This period of awaiting trial is known as “remand detention,” and it can last up to a few months.
Most bond agreements include travel restrictions, confining you to a specific geographic area such as your county or state. These limitations are designed to ensure your availability for court dates. If travel is necessary, you must seek prior approval from the court or your bail bondsman.
