Have you been arrested or ordered to appear on Federal Criminal Charges in Cincinnati, Ohio?  The first appearance is called the arraignment.

This will be before a magistrate-judge.  The charges against you will be presented to you in court and you will have an opportunity to argue for release from custody.

If you are not released you will be retained.  If you are released, there can be conditions.

Conditions can include limits on travel, notification to your employer of the pending charges, etc.

You will want to have a lawyer represent you at this hearing and argue for your release.  The next court date will be a pretrial where the judge, prosecutor and defense lawyer will talk about possible resolutions of your case in the best way possible.
