The process begins with arraignment wherein you are formally charged with a crime. After this you may have a pretrial conferecne where your attorney discusses a possible resolution (agreement with prosecution) to avoid a trial.
If a resolution is not agreed upon, there will be a trial for minor misdemeanor cases and for major misdemeanors and felony charges a preliminary hearing will be scheduled.
For accurate and up to date law information, it is recommended to discuss your case with a Nevada legal professional dueto any sudden changes in the law or procedures.
