Click to expand...

per google

You will get a trial date when you have a hearing called a “Trial Setting Conference”. The judge wants everyone who will be trying the case to be at the hearing. This means your lawyer, if you have one. If you don't, you have to go.

I figured it would be to set a trial date....

A 995 motion is an appeal of the preliminary hearing judge's decision to set the case for trial and often called a "motion to set aside the information.” Typically, a judge will grant the motion if they find there were insufficient legal grounds to hold the defendant over for trial.
