How can someone get a summons for arraignment without ever being arrested?

I'm pretty sure that happens if a person is scheduled for jury duty and does not appear.
Added: In the general publics mind they seldom make a distinction between a "summons" and a "subpoena." While they are similar in nature they ARE different.
A "summons" from court does not necessarily mean that you are in any way involved in the offense as a principal. You may be being 'summoned" to appear because you were a witness to an offense, or that you have some material information to add to the case.

Typically, this is done after arrest, but there is no requirement that a person be arrested before charges can be filed. There are cases where prosecutors do not want the defendant to know about the investigation while it is being conducted, and thus the defendant is not arrested until after the charges can be filed.

If a police officer is accused of forcible touching by a minor would they be immediately arrested and held in jail or would they be questioned and then released until arraignment?
The accused officer would most likely be placed on paid administrative leave until the internal investigation was completed. Once formal charges are verified, then the officer could be suspended without pay until arraignment.
You were arrested taken to jail while going through medical intake your blood glucose was high so the jail would not accept you so you were released do they still have 72 hrs to arraign me?
I find it difficult to believe that you were released and turned out without any paperwork at all! If you were released with a SUMMONS TO APPEAR, you must appear in accordance with that summons. If you did happen to be released with no paperwork - contact the agency that arrested you IMMEDIATELY, because if you were arrested and booked SOMEHOW they have to account for you. If they can't account for you, you might be being carried as an escapee.

no, special summons are NOT the same as normal summons. special summons require a special card or effect to happen, cards such as monster reborn or return from the different dimension. normal summons are just when you directly play a monster from your hand without any other additional card effects
