arraignment
An arraignment is not a hearing to determine guilt or innocence. It is usually a criminal defendant's first appearance in court or before a judge on a criminal charge. At the arraignment, the charges against the defendant will be read and the defendant will be asked if he/she is aware of the charges against them, and will be asked how they wish to plead.

Arraignment is a court proceeding where the defendant is formally charged and asked to enter a plea. Whether you go to jail at arraignment depends on various factors, such as the seriousness of the offense, your criminal history, and whether bail is set. In some cases, the judge may remand the defendant to custody if they are deemed a flight risk or a danger to the community.
