Are you provisionally charged in a criminal case?
If you are provisionally charged in a criminal case, this is where you can read about the entire process from the time of your arrest and provisional charging until you are remanded in custody. You can also read about what happens during the preliminary statutory hearing and the actual trial.
As a person who is provisionally charged, you have a right to a defence counsel. You can also read more about your options for getting a defence counsel and about the defence counsel's role during the criminal case.
