Home >  Criminal >  Federal Crimes

    
The federal crime process works within a system of rules and procedures designed ultimately to do justice. Doing justice includes not only serving the interests of the accused but also the people of the United States.

The federal crime process begins at the time of arrest, then heads steadily towards trial. In between are hearings, conferences and motions. This section will introduce you to the system of federal procedure beginning with the arrest and ending with sentencing.
