Probable cause to detain a suspect is decided at a court proceeding, called the first appearance, where a judicial officer decides whether there is sufficient evidence to hold a person in custody for further proceedings.
Probable cause to go to trial is decided in a preliminary hearing or a grand jury proceeding, which determines whether there is sufficient evidence to bind over the defendant for serious charges.
