Court Date Monday Morning in Atlanta Municipal Court

Posted by Richard Lawson | Feb 23, 2013 | 0 Comments

If you are arrested for DUI in Atlanta Georgia, your court date is very likely the following Monday morning. This seems odd to those arrested and is quite stressful.  Nevertheless, you initial court date in Atlanta Municipal Court is in fact Monday morning.

That being said, people having confuse having "a court date" with that being the date that the case will be resolved.  In Atlanta Municipal Court, your initial court date is an arraignment only.  It's the start of the 60 day discovery and negotiation period.

If you hire an Atlanta DUI Attorney over the weekend, you can be excused from your initial arraignment Monday morning.  Your Atlanta DUI Lawyer can appear for you and file the necessary papers to get the reports and video in your case. You will have to appear later on in the case, but you can at least be excused from the first appearance.

Our office has the top-rated and most reviewed Atlanta DUI Lawyers to serve you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  We take calls on weekends because we know your court date is Monday morning.  Contact our Atlanta DUI Attorneys today.
