The first stage of criminal proceedings based on the courtroom is the Arraignment Process. First is the arrest, then the booking, followed by the bail. Then the criminal court reads the charges of the defendant. It informs that if the defendant does not have a lawyer, the court can get it a court-appointed lawyer. Then the defendant declares himself guilty or not guilty, and pays the respective bail.
