After you are placed under arrest you should be presented to court at the next regularly scheduled session of court - and this can depend on the jurisdiction. In many highly urbanized metropolitan areas, court can be constantly in session with a so-called "duty judge" on at all times. In less densely populated and rural areas, court may be out of session over the weekends and holidays, and you could be held for as long as 48 hours.

An arraignment typically occurs within 48 to 72 hours after a person has been arrested, depending on jurisdiction and the timing of the arrest.

However, if the arrest occurs just before a weekend or holiday, the arraignment may be delayed until the next business day.
In Georgia, after you bond out, the court is typically required to arraign you within 30 days of your arrest. However, this timeline can vary depending on the specific circumstances of your case and the court's schedule. It’s important to stay in contact with your attorney for updates on your arraignment date.
