How? Is it not required to go before district court before being bound over to superior? I don't have a lawyer and like I said, haven't been in front of anyone as of yet except magistrate who set bond and issued district court date. I don't understand how or why I'm scheduled to suddenly appear in superior court first. Is this normal?
