The Pretrial Process simply means that your case has received legal action within the Court system, but you have not yet received a disposition action by the Court as yet.  This could mean you have pleaded not guilty and are awaiting trial, or that you have pleaded guilty, and are completing a presentence investigation with the U.S. Probation office while awaiting your sentencing date. 

You may have mental health treatment services  as a condition in order to assist you in resolving mental health conditions that limit your life functioning, compliance with supervision, or stability in the community.

SELECTIVE SERVICE REGISTRATION

If you are a man ages 18 through 25 and living in the U.S., then you must register with Selective Service. It’s the law. According to law, a man must register with Selective Service within 30 days of his 18th birthday. Selective Service will accept late registrations but not after a man has reached age 26. You may be denied benefits or a job if you have not registered. You can register at any U.S. Post Office and do not need a social security number.
