Being charged with a crime
Remand
If the court decides to put you on remand it means you’ll go to prison until your trial begins.
If you’re under 18 you’ll be taken to a secure centre for young people, not an adult prison.
You may be put on remand if:
- you’ve been convicted of a crime in the past
- the court thinks you might not go to your court hearing
- the court thinks you might commit a crime while on bail
- you have been given bail before and not stuck to the terms
