Once you are arrested for a crime, you will be taken to jail and held there until you are able to see the judge, which typically happens in a 48-hour period.
1 Provision of counsel at first appearance (“CAFA”) is recognized in law and standards as an effective way to defend the presumption of innocence in the pretrial phase and fulfill defense attorneys' duties to their clients throughout the course of their representation.
Appearance counsel “appears” in court on behalf of their client's primary attorney. Think of them as substitute legal representation.
In most cases, you have until May 15 or 30 days from the date the appraisal district notices are delivered — whichever date is later. Note that the deadline is 30 days from the date the appraisal district mails a notice, not upon the property owner or their authorized representative's receipt of delivery.
What happens after the first appearance in court in Texas? The court normally schedules follow up status conference hearings and may even set a trial date after a first appearance in Texas.
To set a hearing, contact the Court Operations Officer at (512) 854-9241. It is recommended that you consult an attorney or have an attorney represent you.
Travis County is one of the biggest counties in Texas that doesn't have a counsel at first appearance program. But it's not for lack of trying. In spring 2022, the county received a $500,000 grant from Texas A&M University to launch a counsel at first appearance pilot program.
