Answer 1

I'm curious about the charges, if he is being held without bond because he is a threat. The right to reasonable bail is fairly commonly exercised, and our courts generally grant bail unless they find (a) the defendant is a flight risk or (b) they believe that the defendant is such a risk that leaving the defendant loose poses a danger to society. The judge does not make such a determination lightly.

I would contact his attorney and ask what the progress is on the case, and if it is possible to have a bail/bond review hearing. However, the earlier answer was correct: although there is a right to a speedy trial, that right is often waived for a variety reasons. Those reasons include the caseload of the attorney, the need to find and interview witnesses, and also simple trial strategy.

I repeat: Contact his attorney and ask for explanations, and ask what is going to happen. Quite frankly, if the offense with which he is charged is serious enough that they feel he is a threat, if he is convicted, its possible he will be gone for a while..(although you didn't mention what the charges were)

Answer 2

Not really. When someone is accused of a crime 9 times out of 10 the defesnse attorney will waive the right to a speedy trial. They do this for several reasons, which I won't go into. Anyway, he will sit in jail until a bond is set or his case is disposed of through verdict, plea, or dismissal.
