Section 180.30. Proceedings upon felony complaint; waiver of hearing; action to be taken  


Latest version.
  • If the defendant waives a hearing upon the felony complaint, the court
      must either:
        1.  Order that the defendant be held for the action of a grand jury of
      the  appropriate  superior  court  with respect to the charge or charges
      contained in the felony  complaint.    In  such  case,  the  court  must
      promptly   transmit  to  such  superior  court  the  order,  the  felony
      complaint, the supporting depositions and all other pertinent documents.
      Until such papers are received by the  superior  court,  the  action  is
      deemed to be still pending in the local criminal court; or
        2.    Make  inquiry,  pursuant  to  section 180.50, for the purpose of
      determining whether the felony complaint  should  be  dismissed  and  an
      information, a prosecutor's information or a misdemeanor complaint filed
      with the court in lieu thereof.
