How a case moves here
Remington follows Virginia law on arrests, release, and courts; the full set covers prosecutors, defense, and jails too.
- Who decides release first
A magistrate decides bail first. Magistrates are court officers, not judges, and need not be lawyers. The law presumes release unless the magistrate finds the person likely to flee or dangerous.
Va. Code 19.2-119Va. Code 19.2-120Va. Code 19.2-37- Time to see a judge
Police must bring a person arrested without a warrant "forthwith" before a magistrate. The law sets no number of hours.
Va. Code 19.2-82- Money bail
Magistrates and judges may set secured money bonds. Virginia repealed its presumptions against bail for listed offenses in 2021 and now presumes release.
Va. Code 19.2-120
Read from the statutes and court rules cited, 2026-09-30. Virginia's independent cities stand in for counties: each elects its own Commonwealth's attorney and sheriff. Whether every locality has a pretrial services agency was not confirmed.

Offenses Remington Police Department reported to the FBI in incident detail (NIBRS), each year, the second table by the arrest class each offense falls in. It reported no full year, so there is no rate. – means too few for a rate: the count is under 20.
* 2021 to 2024: reported for part of the year only, so the count is short and the year is left out of the rate.
