Hi
I have been charged with an offence. I have to attend magistrates court on the 29th of this month.
The charges are: robbery and driving without insurance.
Am u right in assuming this will be a plea hearing? I am not sure as I have never been to court or arrested even
Any help will be much appreciated

Have you hired a lawyer yet? If not why.

Robbery can carry a prison sentence... odd there wasn't an arrest associated with that.

No, this will not be a plea hearing, unless you have already arranged a plea agreement.
If you already had a first appearance, had the charges officially read ? Have you had a bail hearing to set bail ?

Is the state filing any motions ?

Without knowing what has already happened, what hearings you may have waived, it is all a guess

Basically I was arrested approximately two months ago
I was held in a cell, questioned then realised on bail and asked to return to the police station a month later.
I attended the station where I was told I have been charged and bailed. Read my rights, signed done paperwork and given a date to appear at a magistrates court on the 29th
I'm a little confused and distressed as to what happens now
I'm unemployed and cannot afford a lawyer
Any help will be grately appreciated
