Warrant Application Hearing
According to Georgia Code 14-4-40 (5) "At the warrant application hearing, a determination shall be made whether or not probable cause exists for the issuance of a warrant for the arrest of the person whose arrest is sought. If the judge or other officer finds that probable cause exists, the warrant may issue instanter." Because of this, the burden of proof is lower to obtain an arrest than what is necessary for a conviction. As such, you would be aided by the assistance of an attorney who can help you to defend yourself and work to prevent you from being arrested. In the event you are seeking a warrant, it is likely helpful to have the assistance of an attorney in laying out your case for issuing an arrest warrant.
