After an arrest

Who decides release first

A magistrate sets bail first. In many counties that is an appointed judicial commissioner who need not be a lawyer; in others it is a general sessions judge or, when no judge can come within three hours, a court clerk. A defendant can appeal a commissioner's decision to the court.

Time to see a judge

A person arrested must be taken "without unnecessary delay" before the nearest magistrate of the county. The rule sets no number of hours.
