I understand your confusion. Here's a general explanation:
- "Motion" is usually a pre-trial process to resolve certain issues.
- "Trial" is the formal court proceeding.
- "Return for trial" likely means the date when the trial starts.
Whether your husband will go home depends on many factors, including the judge's decision. Please consult a local attorney for specific advice.
