Montgomery County, Texas Local Attorney Perspective - Retained Counsel vs. Appointed Counsel.

Let’s discuss the importance of ensuring that if a loved one is in one county’s custody but there is also a pending charge in another county to ensure there is a “hold” placed on them. This hold is crucial for getting credit for the out of county allegation for the time served in the current county. This is especially true if there are multiple cases involved. I emphasize the need to communicate with their attorney or, if that's not possible, to reach out to the clerk of the court for assistance.

Additionally, this process applies to federal cases as well.

We cannot stress enough the importance of securing a hold to avoid starting over on jail time.
