The timeframe depends on what state you reside in. In most cases it can range from 90 to about 120 days. If your attorney has waived "speedy trial" it can be even longer. If you are represented by an attorney ask them.

For arraignment, you must be presented at the next regularly scheduled session of court. After arraignment, under "speedy trial" rules - although they may differ slightly from state-to-state - you must usually go to trial within 90 days. However, if your attorney agrees to waive "speedy," your trial date may be postponed however long your attorney agrees to. If you believe that you have been waiting overly-long for your trial, check with your attorney.

The police do not keep you in jail, the court does. The court will keep you in jail - or temporarily free on bail - until your "not guilty" status is confirmed by a court.

How long would a minor go to jail for missing a court date in denton county?

Answer 1: Missing a court date is generally considered, by the Court, to be contempt of its orders. A court date is an order. Missing it is "contempt of court." There are no set lengths of time to which one may be sentenced for "contempt of court." It's entirely up to the judge. Well... let me refine that: There are at least some guidelines which the judge must follow; he can't just throw you in jail and leave you there. However, the judge's discretion is so broad that, trust me, being tossed in jail for contempt is NOT something that you ever want a judge to do.
