The trial will be set within 70 days of arraignment on an indictment or information. While some federal cases do resolve quickly, most are delayed for various reasons including the complexity of the case, the time needed to review the evidence, the number of defendants, the number and location of the witnesses, the time needed to prepare and argue motions, to negotiate plea agreements, or to prepare for trial. Your attorney can give you the best estimate of how long it will take to resolve your specific case.
