Circuit Court sometimes called Superior Court in some states. (i.e.: a court of original jurisdiction).
A felony case is called when someone is charged with what the law considers a serious crime. There are three phases of a felony case: Arraignment (the preliminary hearing), the Second Arraignment (felony pre-trial), and Felony Trial (where a jury will hear the case).
Arraignment is the first step in a criminal proceeding. During an arraignment, a defendant appears to be advised of the charges and enter a plea: guilty or not guilty. During arraignment, further court dates are also set and the hearing offers a defendant the opportunity to ask for court-appointed counsel, if he or she hasn't secured a lawyer of his or her own. Moreover, bail issues can be resolved at the arraignment hearing. Arraignment is the first step in a criminal proceeding.
