If the jurisdiction in question adheres to the Grand Jury system of indictment, the GJ will indict by handing down a "true bill" in the sequence in which it was presented to them. HOWEVER - if the jurisdictions NOT utilizing a Grand Jury system, your Preliminary Hearing IS your idndictiment and the presiding judge decides if there is enough Probable Cause to bind you over for trial.
