Federal cases start with the FBI, IRS agents, or the U.S. Marshals. A federal case moves to Arkansas's Eastern District, Central Division in the U.S. courthouse: 500 West Capitol Avenue, Little Rock, AR 72201. Clerk's phone: 501-604-5351. An initial court date happens quickly with a federal magistrate judge. A pretrial services report helps the judge and covers jobs, family and past cases. You won't find a bail schedule in federal court. A detention hearing settles the release terms, under the Bail Reform Act.

Check the county roster, where a federal hold may show. Otherwise phone the Eastern District Marshals at 501-324-6256 (600 West Capitol Avenue, Suite A328, Little Rock, AR 72201). Most federal detainees wait in the Russellville jail rented by the Marshals until sentencing. A federal prison term sends them from the county jail to a Bureau of Prisons facility once a spot is set. Once they arrive, look up the prison with the BOP locator.

• Officers from ICE usually take custody within that window. If nobody comes, staff is supposed to let them go.
