In Wisconsin, further proceedings are hearing dates used by the court and the attorneys involved to monitor the progress of your case.
No, important things can still happen.
Every time your case goes in front of a judge and prosecutor, you and your lawyer have a chance to make a favorable impression, possibly even a chance to negotiate your case, even if only in a small way. If you have been in any kind of treatment or involved with any kind of activities while the case has been ongoing, this is a chance for your defense attorney to bring this up in front of the judge to help them learn more about you before they make any decisions about what may happen with you and your case that could seriously impact your future.
Time works against you from the moment you are arrested. There are always things that can be done to improve your position in the criminal justice system, but there is only so much time to do it in. It is very important you contact a criminal defense attorney to learn more about how you can be using these court appearances and the time between them to your advantage. The lawyers at Grieve Law can take all criminal law cases, including drug possession and DUI offenses.
