Defendant needs an attorney to represent him. He should probably keep quiet, especially about his claim of non-citizenship.

The criminal charge should show up on the NCIC as pending, as the charge has not been disposed of yet. When you get it dismissed, you must also get it expunged or it will be on your record forever. Your lawyer should have told you this.

answered on Jan 19, 2023
Each County notifies Defendants in a different manner. It may be a card, going to Docket Call each month, etc. Your attorney should be able to find out from the Court or the DA.

That is not a ground to dismiss a criminal charge. General Sessions allows oral amendments readily. Hire an attorney to represent you.

Possibly on a Motion To Suppress. You will need a competent attorney to prepare for a Preliminary Hearing and file the latter Motion if Indicted. Do not get in any more trouble, and it might be time for a new phone.
