What is the name of your state? Arizona
I recently went to my pretrial and did not have a lawyer and was told by a lawyer on phone to ask for a continuance til i got the money to pay lawyer. My first meeting was with prosecuter and i told him thats what i needed and he said he would not agree to that unless i waved right to speedy trial. I did that and now wonder if i screwed up. Its my first charge for anything and need to know what i can do?
