He can have all the hearings that he wants, but in the meantime he should be running out of the detention barn.
In the real world, if you get arrested for something, you are held in jail even before your hearing. Yes, you get a trial but if you do not post bail then you sit in jail while you are awaiting your trial. In some cases, where the public is at risk, there is no bail.
