Answer to Question 1

Booking involves documenting who was arrested, the time of the arrest, and the offense involved.

Answer to Question 2

Once arrested and booked, the suspect is then brought before a magistrate or judge in what is known as the initial appearance.

The initial appearance is designed to serve a number of purposes. In a misdemeanor case, such as a minor in possession, the trial may take place at this stage. In a more serious case, however, the accused will be advised of:

 The reason he or she is being detained (notification of formal charges often comes later at arraignment)
 His or her protection against self-incrimination
 His or her right to appointed counsel, if necessary

The judge may also set bail at the initial appearance, but the bail determination often requires a separate hearing.
