You must be charged with something in order to be arraigned, and you must generally be presented to court to be arraigned within 24 hours of arrest. Of course, if you have already been charged with some offense but the police are still invistigating you on yet another, THAT charge can take as long as it takes them to produce probably cause.

What is a written order directing a law enforcement officer to arrest a person?

A written order directing a law enforcement officer to arrest a person is commonly known as an arrest warrant. It is issued by a judge or magistrate and provides legal authority for the officer to apprehend and detain the individual named in the warrant. The warrant typically includes information about the alleged offense and the individual being arrested.


What is the difference between being arrested and being charged?

Arresting is the physical act of taking someone into custody. It is normally performed by police officers. Charging is the act of proceeding in court with a prosecution against someone for committing a crime. It is normally performed by prosecutors. A person who has not been charged can be arrested. The police then bring information to the prosecutors, who then decide whether to charge. If the prosecutor declines to charge, the police normally must let the person go. A person who has not been arrested can be charged. The prosecutors can write up and present the charges, and have a judge issue a warrant for the arrest of the suspect. Sometimes years can go by before the charged person is located and arrested. Normally, the police can arrest someone if there is a judge-issued arrest warrant against the person, or if the police have probable cause to believe the person has committed a crime. In some states the police cannot arrest for certain misdemeanors without a warrant, or without personally witnessing the crime. Normally, the prosecutor must have probable cause to believe the person committed a crime in order to charge them. In some jurisdictions, the prosecutor's decision must be confirmed by a grand jury or the charge is dismissed. Elsewhere, the defendant may have the right to have a judge decide on whether there is probable cause.


Can a Michigan police officer arrest someone who he claims he seen earlier in the day driving and write a ticket to the person when he later sees them at the gas station not even in a vechile?

This question raises too many questions to address without much more information. (1) Why is the person being arrested if he's being written a ticket? (2) What offense, or crime, is he being arrested for? (3) What offense is the ticket being issued for? (4) How did he manage to elude the officer earlier in the day? Did he flee? (5) Are there warrants for this persons arrest? If so, they can be served whenever and wherever the subject is located.
