The Criminal Process

While no one can predict precisely how long a criminal case will take, district court cases usually resolve within eight months to one year after the arraignment.  Superior court cases generally take longer with a resolution occurring between one and two years after the arraignment.  Factors that determine the length of a criminal case include:

• The severity of the charges;
• The depth of the investigation;
• Whether the defendant is in custody; and
• The court’s schedule.

Cases involving defendants in-custody are likely to move through the court system faster because they have preferential scheduling.  Superior court cases take longer due to the grand jury process, the increased number of hearings, and lengthy trials.

Attorney Spring represents defendants in both district and superior court.  His level of professionalism and aggressive stance does not vary according to the types of charges a client is facing.
