WHAT HAPPENS AFTER A GRAND JURY INDICTS:
After a grand jury indictment,
the individual who is charged in the case usually has a chance to enter
a plea. If he chooses to plead not guilty, a trial is set, during which
prosecuting attorneys work to prove his guilt while defense attorneys
work to prove his innocence. In the event that the party pleads guilty
to the charges levied against him, he may receive a sentencing hearing
instead. In the time leading up to the trial, the person may have to
stay in jail or he may be released on bail. This depends on the
jurisdiction in which the person is indicted, the unique details of the
case, and whether or not he is likely to flee before the trial.
Following
an indictment, the accused party is formally charged with the crime. If
he has yet to be arrested, he may be arrested and then charged. In most
jurisdictions, the accused party attends a pretrial hearing and has the
opportunity to enter a plea. In the event that he pleads guilty, he may
be sentenced then or at a later date, but there is typically no need
for a trial. If he pleads not guilty, however, he is usually given a
trial.http://www.wisegeek.org/what-happens-after-a-grand-jury-indictment.htm
