What to do after an arrest in Orange County
Florida requires that anyone who is arrested be brought before a judge within 24 hours for a first appearance, where the court reviews the charges and sets bond and release conditions. What happens in those first hours can shape the whole case.
- Do not discuss the case with police, other inmates, or on jail phone calls, which are recorded.
- Write down what happened while it is fresh: times, places and who was there.
- Keep every paper you were given, including the citation, bond receipt and court date.
- Talk to a defense attorney before your first court date.
