Plea Dates

Updated 1-11-12

 

Please note that any Perry County defendants out on bond may enter their plea in Hattiesburg.  Please let Jerra know prior to the plea time.

 

Please make sure you let the ADA know of your plea so that the paperwork is ready and everyone knows.

 

Judge requires a Petition to Enter a Guilty Plea when you come to Court for a plea.  Please make sure you have this ready to hand in when you come.  If your client is entering a plea on a Criminal Information, then a Waiver of Indictment is required.  If you need either document, please e-mail Jerra at jrunnels@co.forrest.ms.us. 

 

*************We have criminal trials scheduled every Monday and Wednesday for the next few weeks, so please plan ahead and have your client plead 10 days PRIOR to the trial date.  Failure to appear will result in a bench warrant being issued and the bond will be forfeited.  Defendant will remain in jail until the case is resolved by plea or trial.
