What to Expect After a Temple Terrace Police Arrest

After a Temple Terrace Police arrest, the person is usually taken to the Orient Road Jail for booking. A first appearance before a judge generally happens within 24 hours, and that’s where bond and release conditions are addressed. The case then goes to the Hillsborough County courts in downtown Tampa, either the Edgecomb Courthouse or the Courthouse Annex, depending on the charge.

Temple Terrace Police make arrests for a wide range of charges, including DUI, drug possession, theft, battery, and underage drinking. For students, a criminal charge can sometimes lead to a separate school conduct process, and Attorney Ron Frey can help with that as well, depending on the case. Attendance at court dates is often required and should be assumed mandatory unless the court or your attorney explicitly says otherwise.
