Case transfers to a trial deputy for 1 of the following:

Upon request for interviews
Upon request for redacted discovery
After case is set for trial

Generally, investigation by the defense, including witness interviews, does not revoke an early plea offer. Exceptions are made when a witness is a confidential informant, or a sensitive victim/witness is involved. The State reserves the right to revoke an early plea offer in other circumstances (such as a new crime is committed, additional criminal history is discovered, failures to appear, or violations of CCAP), although it strives to provide predictability and notice to the defense of any revocation.
