An Indiana Order to Appear is a court order issued by a judge in the state of Indiana that requires a person to appear in court. It is most commonly used by prosecutors to compel individuals to appear in court for criminal proceedings, such as a trial or a sentencing. The order can also be used to require the appearance of a witness or a defendant in a civil manner. There are two types of Indiana Order to Appear: an Order to Appear for a Preliminary Hearing and an Order to Appear for a Final Hearing. The Order to Appear for a Preliminary Hearing is issued by a judge to individuals to appear in court for a hearing that determines whether there is enough evidence to proceed with a criminal trial. The Order to Appear for a Final Hearing is issued to defendants to appear in court for a hearing that determines the outcome of a criminal trial, such as a guilty or not guilty verdict.
